Question

what would the correct expression be for a number which is twice as big as the number obtained after p has been divided by 3

Answer 1

First, divide p by 3 we get, ${p\over3}....(i)$.

Next, multiply equation $(i)$ by 2. So, we get, ${p\over3}\times 2={2p\over3}......(ii)$

Therefore, the correct expression is ${2p\over3}$.
