How do you solve #3( 2p + 19) + 2p = 8p#?

p does not exist.
Explanation:
This is the step-by-step procedure of solving for p:
(ignore this if you are familiar with algebra)
Expand the the bracket:
32p = 6p
319 = 57
Then put it altogether
6p + 57 + 2p = 8p.
Put all values with p to one side of the equation
6p - 8p+ 2p = -57
and as 57 is positive, changing it to the other side with make it negative, the same applies to 8p.
Then simplify:
0 = -57.
As this is false, p does not exist.
It would not be within the field of real numbers.
