| 3 | ( | 1 | − | p | ) | = | 1 | ÷ | 64 |
| Left side of the equation = | 3 | × | 1 | − | 3 | p |
| = | 3 | − | 3 | p |
| 3 | − | 3 | p | = | 1 | ÷ | 64 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 64 |
| 3 | − | 3 | p | = | 1 64 |
| - | 3 | p | = | 1 64 | − | 3 |
| - | 3 | p | = | - | 191 64 |
191 64 | = | 3 | p |
| 3 | p | = | 191 64 |
| p | = | 191 64 | ÷ | 3 |
| = | 191 64 | × | 1 3 |
| p | = | 191 192 |
| p | = | 0.994792 |
