| p | ( | 20 100 | ) | + | ( | 1 | − | p | ) | ( | - | 167 1000 | ) | = | 1 100 |
| Left side of the equation = | p | × | 20 100 | + | ( | 1 | − | p | ) | ( | - | 167 1000 | ) |
| = | 20 100 | p | + | 1 | ( | - | 167 1000 | ) | − | p | ( | - | 167 1000 | ) |
| = | 20 100 | p | − | 1 | × | 167 1000 | − | p | ( | - | 167 1000 | ) |
| = | 20 100 | p | − | 167 1000 | − | p | ( | - | 167 1000 | ) |
| = | 20 100 | p | − | 167 1000 | + | p | × | 167 1000 |
| = | 367 1000 | p | − | 167 1000 |
367 1000 | p | − | 167 1000 | = | 1 100 |
367 1000 | p | = | 1 100 | + | 167 1000 |
367 1000 | p | = | 177 1000 |
| p | = | 177 1000 | ÷ | 367 1000 |
| = | 177 1000 | × | 1000 367 |
| = | 177 | × | 1 367 |
| p | = | 177 367 |
| p | = | 0.482289 |
