Not sure what your question is asking?


However, 168P = 32 would require you to divide both sides by the 168 to isolate your 'P' variable, giving you P = 32/168, from there, simplify your 32/168 -> 4/21.

Therefore, given that said problem, P = 4/21.


To check your solution you would plug the amount you calculated for 'P' back into the ORIGINAL equation and make sure it matches up.

168 (4/21) = 32


168/1 * 4/21 = 32

Cross multiply 168 x 4 / 21 x 1 = 32


= 672/21 = 32


Simplify 672/21 down to 32.

32 = 32


Correct solution.
