Question

Please help me, solve for n

Answer 1

The value of n will be:

• 
  `n=(89)/(4)`

Explanation:

Given the expression

`(n)/(2)-8^(-1)=11`

Apply the exponent rule:

• 
  `a^(-1)=(1)/(n)`

so the expression becomes

`(n)/(2)-(1)/(8)=11`

Add 1/8 to both the sides

`(n)/(2)-(1)/(8)+(1)/(8)=11+(1)/(8)`

`(n)/(2)=(89)/(8)`

`n=(89)/(4)`

Therefore, the value of n will be:

• 
  `n=(89)/(4)`
