• What is 12.95p=44 simplified to its lowest value?

$\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}$

$\sf \: 12.95p = 44$

Divide both sides by 12.95.

$\sf \: p=\frac{44}{12.95}$

Expand 44/12.95 by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 100.

$\sf \: p=\frac{4400}{1295}$

Reduce the fraction 4400/1295 to its lowest terms by extracting and cancelling out 5.

$\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf p = \frac{880}{259} = 3\frac{103}{259} \approx 3.39}}$
