m%28p%2B2%29=n
Solve for p.
p%2B2=n%2Fm
p=n%2Fm-2
You need to use your skills with fractions.
p=n%2Fm-2%28m%2Fm%29
and then what?

m(p + 2) = n
p+%2B+2+=+n%2Fm ------ Dividing by m
p+=+-+2+%2B+n%2Fm ---- Subtracting 2 from each side
highlight_green%28p+=+%28-+2m+%2B+n%29%2Fm%29, or highlight_green%28p+=+%28n+-+2m%29%2Fm%29
