    18)

    3/8 + p/8 = 3 1/8

    3/8 + p/8 = 25/8

    p = 22

    20)

    4g/16 - 3/8 - g/16 = 3/16

    4g/16 - 6/16 - g/16 = 3/16

    3g - 6 = 3

    3g = 9

    g = 3

    22)

    4/13 = -2b/13 + 6b/26

    8/26 = -4b/26 + 6b/26

    8 = 2b

    b = 8/2 = 4

    24)

    243 - 67 - 92 = 84mi

    84mi/7hr = 12mi/hr average

    26)

    4n + 11 - 7n = -13

    -3n = -24

    n = -24/-3 = 8

    28)

    x/2 + 2/3 = 5/6

    3x/6 + 4/6 = 5/6

    3x/6 = 1/6

    x = 1/3

    24. Lydia rode 243 miles in 3 days.

    On day#1, she rode 67 miles

    On day#2, she rode 92 miles

    okay so #18 you find that 3 and 1/8 is equal to 25/8 and you subtract 3/8 from that to find P. P=22

    math used to be my favourite subject haha that should get you started
