What is the answer to 2(10 + n) = 16

Question

What is the answer to
`2(10 + n) = 16`

Answer 1

The initial expression is:

`2(10+n)=16`

So first we can divide by 2 so:

`\begin{gathered} 10+n=(16)/(2) \\ 10+n=8 \end{gathered}`

now we rest 10 in bout sides so:

`\begin{gathered} n=8-10 \\ n=-2 \end{gathered}`
