How do you solve for 0.25 (12-8p) = 4p-9

The answer is p = 2.

Here are the steps I did.

1. Expand (3 - 2p = 4p - 9)

2. Add 2p to both sides (3 = 4p - 9 + 2p)

3. Simplify 4p - 9 + 2p to 6p - 9 (3 = 6p - 9)

4. Add 9 to both sides (3 + 9 = 6p)

5. Simplify 3 + 9 to 12 (12 = 6p)

6. Divide both sides by 6 (12/6 = p)

7. Simplify 12/6 to 2 (2 = p)

8. Now lastly switch it up (p = 2)
