    3 (5p - 3) = 5 (p - 1)

    Distributive property.

    15p - 9 = 5p - 5

    Subtract 5p from both sides.

    10p - 9 = - 5

    Add 9 to both sides.

    10p = 4

    Divide both sides by 10.

    p = 0.4

    The value of p is 0.4.

    p = 5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3p - 5 = 10

    Add 5 to each side

    3p-5+5 = 10+5

    3p = 15

    Divide each side by 3

    3p/3 = 15/3

    p = 5
