| 1 | p | × | 25 100 | = | 1 | p | ( | 1 | − | 5 100 | ) | − | 285 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 4 | p |
1 4 | p | = | 1 | p | ( | 1 | − | 5 100 | ) | − | 285 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 | p | × | 1 | − | 1 | p | × | 5 100 | − | 285 |
| = | 1 | p | − | 1 20 | p | − | 285 |
| = | 19 20 | p | − | 285 |
1 4 | p | = | 19 20 | p | − | 285 |
1 4 | p | − | 19 20 | p | = | - | 285 |
| - | 7 10 | p | = | - | 285 |
| 285 | = | 7 10 | p |
7 10 | p | = | 285 |
| p | = | 285 | ÷ | 7 10 |
| = | 285 | × | 10 7 |
| p | = | 2850 7 |
| p | = | 407.142857 |
