Question

How do you solve
25n=70

Answer 1

You want to do to one side the same thing you do to the other side.

In order to get the n by itself you divide the 25n by 25. But in order to not change the answer you need to do the same to the 70.


`(25n)/(25) = (70)/(25)`

so n=
`(70)/(25)` which can be reduced to
`(14)/(5)`

so n=
`(14)/(5)`
