    1/4 (8-4p) + 2p = 12

    Use distributive property by multiplying 1/4 by each term inside parentheses:

    2 - p + 2p = 12

    Combine like terms:

    2 + p = 12

    Subtract 2 from both sides:

    P = 10

    P is equal to 10

    How to get your answer:

    So 1/4 (8-4p) + 2p = 12

    First you need to distributive by multiplying 1/4 to each term like this:

    2 - p + 2p = 12

    Then you have to combine to terms just as I did below:

    2 + p = 12

    Then you need to subtract 2 from both sides to get 10 so:

    P = 10
