I think you will lose one mark for not saying what p equals unfortunately.

There is a smallll chance that one examiner will give you two and the other will give you one. In which case, a "half" mark would be awarded :P

Yeah, most likely you'd get 2 out 3..they give one mark for making it to that expression.

Yeah, since it said to identify p, just like in the other q's, where you had to find a,d,c, and another one...
