1 answer

To find the value of p in the equation x + p = q, we need to isolate the variable x in the given equation x - 5 2/9 = 29.

First, we can add 5 2/9 to both sides of the equation:

x - 5 2/9 + 5 2/9 = 29 + 5 2/9

Simplifying, we get:

x + 0 = 29 + 5 2/9

x = 34 2/9

Now we can substitute this value of x back into the equation x + p = q:

34 2/9 + p = q

Therefore, the value of p in the form x + p = q, given the equation x - 5 2/9 = 29, is 34 2/9.
