This problem is the same as 5/12 * 8/5 = 8/12 = 2/3
4p - 12 = 3p - 8 - 9p 4p - 3p + 9p = -8 + 12 10p = 4 p = 0.4 (or 2/5)
The numbers that multiply to -12 and add to 6 are 8 and -2. When you multiply 8 by -2, you get -12, and when you add them together, 8 plus -2 equals 6. Thus, the solution to the problem is 8 and -2.
The answer to the problem of 5/8 minus 5/24 is 5/12. In decimal form it is 0.41666.
