Answer:
The answer is p= 2 and 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
This answer can be found using the order of operations to solve for p.
Start by distributing 2/3 by (5p-6)
add -4/3p to 10/3p equaling 6/3p or 2p
subtract 13 from both sides
-p= 2p - 7
p=2 and 1/3

Answer:
33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.
1.40 × purchase price = £42
purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30
The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...
£30 × 40% = £12
The purchase price of the skirt is ...
total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27
The profit on the skirt is ...
total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9
Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...
skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%
The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.
