You wrote b stickers in the first line but then the last line was p = 100. The first sentence was about stickers but then it became stamps in the subsequent sentences.
I will assume that either b or p was miswritten as the other. Likewise for stamps and stickers.
From the question, we know that one album has p stickers
For 8 similar albums , that is 8 × p = 8p
Since there are 5 stickers left over, total number of stickers = 8p + 5
When p = 100, total number of stickers = 8 × 100 + 5
= 800 + 5
= 805
