Answer:

0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

First, remove the 1/8 by subtracting 1/8 on both sides

-3p = -3/8

Then, isolate the variable by diving each side by -3

p = 0.125

Answer:

p = 3/24

Step-by-step explanation:

-3p + 1/8 = -1/4

-3p = -1/8 - 2/8

-3p = -3/8

-3p/3 = -3/8 ÷ 3

-p = -3/8 x 1/3

-p = -3/24

-p/-1 = -3/24/-1

p = 3/24

Check:

-3p + 1/8 = -1/4

-3(3/24) + 1/8 = -1/4

-9/24 + 1/8 = -1/4

-3/8 + 1/8 = -1/4

-2/8 = -1/4

-1/4 = -1/4
