Hello!

To solve an algebraic equation, you must isolate the variable on one side. We’ll begin by restating the given equation:

12 + 12n = -48

Now subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

12n = -60

Divide both sides by 12:

n = -5

We have now proven that “n” is equal to (-5).

I hope this helps!
