Question

Solve this equation for N. 6N + 3 = 5N + 7

Answer 1

`6N+3=5N+7`

1.Subtract 3 in both sides of the equation:

`\begin{gathered} 6N+3-3=5N+7-3 \\ 6N=5N+4 \end{gathered}`

2. Subtract 5N in both sides of the equation:

`\begin{gathered} 6N-5N=5N-5N+4 \\ N=4 \end{gathered}`

Then, the solution for N in the given equation is 4
