It's not an equation. It's only a mathematical phrase, so we can not solve for "p".
ANSWER: The expression is:
2p ÷ 7 or [tex] \frac{2p}{7} [/tex]
---------------------
To solve for p, the problem should be like this:
Example:
The quotient of twice an unknown number p and 7 is 5/7.
2p/7 = 5/7
(7/2) 2p/7 = 5/7 (7/2) (Multiply both sides of equation
by the reciprocal of the coefficient
of p)
p = 5/2
