Solve for n.2n − 35=5 Enter your answer in the box.n =
The equestion is, solve for n
[tex]\frac{2n-3}{5}=5[/tex]Step 1: Cross multiply the equation above to have
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2n-3}{5}=\frac{5}{1} \\ 1(2n-3)=5\times5 \\ 2n-3=25 \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2: Add 3 to both sides
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2n-3=25 \\ 2n-3+3=25+3 \\ 2n=28 \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 3: Divide both sides by 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2n=28 \\ \frac{2n}{2}=\frac{28}{2} \\ n=14 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence,
The value of n = 14
