p's and q's

$\frac{p}{p-2q} =3$

$\frac{p-2q}{p} =\frac{1}{3}$

1 - $\frac{2q}{p} =\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{2q}{p} =\frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{q}{p} =\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{p}{q} =3$

• p/(p-2q)=3
• p=3p-6q
• p-3p=-6q
• p/q= -6/-3
• p/q = 3

$\begin{aligned} \frac{p}{(p-2q)} &= 3 &\\ p &= 3(p-2q) \\ p &= 3p - 6q \\ p - 3p &= -6q \\ -2p &= -6q \\ \frac{p}{q} &= \frac{-6}{-2} \\ \frac{p}{q} &= \boxed{3} \\ \end{aligned}$

P/(p - 2q)= 3 P=3×(p - 2q) P=3p - 6q P - 3p= - 6q - 2p= - 6q - 2p/-6=q p/3=q

Now, p=3q P/q = 3 Answer.....!
