p is for original number of club members.
\n" ); document.write( "Per-member rate was \"600%2Fp\" dollars per member.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Six new members joined and this changes the per-member rate.
\n" ); document.write( "p+6 is the number of total members including the added five of them (new members).
\n" ); document.write( "Per-member rate now reduced by $5 each.
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%28600%2Fp-5=600%2F%28p%2B6%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Do you understand the formation of this equation?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve for p, and then evaluate p+6.
