The number is n. 12 is what is being diminished (made smaller), so something is subtracted. 6 times a number is 6n
12 - 6n, so a
It is first option salt water is it?
I believe it is neither
For one if you plug in either of them the first one is going to be negative 3. But if you use the second one then your answer would be -3+12= -10 but -3+12 is 9 so I would go with neither because I don't see how it's both

Solve for p:
p/8 + 3/8 = 25/8
p/8 + 3/8 = (p + 3)/8:
(p + 3)/8 = 25/8
Multiply both sides of (p + 3)/8 = 25/8 by 8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = (8×25)/8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8 (p + 3))/8 = 8/8×(p + 3) = p + 3:p + 3 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = 8/8×25 = 25:
p + 3 = 25
Subtract 3 from both sides:
p + (3 - 3) = 25 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:
p = 25 - 3
25 - 3 = 22:
Answer: p = 22
