Given the equation 1$\frac{3}{7}$+$\frac{7p}{5}$ = 5 $\frac{3}{7}$, identify the variable and find its value.


1$\frac{3}{7}$+$\frac{7p}{5}$ = 5 $\frac{3}{7}$
Here p is the variable and we find its value.

= $\frac{10}{7}$+$\frac{7p}{5}$ =  $\frac{38}{7}$
$\frac{7p}{5}$ = $\frac{38}{7}$ - $\frac{10}{7}$ 
= $\frac{28}{7}$ = 4
$\frac{7p}{5}$
= 4
p = 4  $\times \frac{5}{7}$
= $\frac{20}{7}$ 
= 2 $\frac{6}{5}$
