![**Solving for p in the Equation B = C + pr**
To solve for \( p \) in the given formula, follow these steps:
1. **Start with the equation:**
\[
B = C + pr
\]
2. **Isolate the term containing \( p \) by subtracting \( C \) from both sides:**
\[
B - C = pr
\]
3. **Solve for \( p \) by dividing both sides by \( r \):**
\[
p = \frac{B - C}{r}
\]
Hence, the formula for \( p \) is:
\[
p = \frac{B - C}{r}
