Question:

n/2 - 2n/16 = 3/8

Steps:

1. Simplify 2n/16: n/8 since you can divide 16 by 2. Then put it back into the equation:

  • n/2 - n/8 = 3/8

Then, find the least common multiple (LCM): 8

2. Multiply 8 to both sides

  • n/2 * 8 - n/8 * 8 = 3/8 * 8

3. Simplify,

  • 4n - n = 3
  • 3n = 3

4. Then, divide both sides by 3

  • 3n/3 = 3/3
  • n = 1 is the answer!

Hope that helped!!!

n/2 - 2n/16 = 3/8 it's basic algebra.​

​Step 1 :

n/2 = 8n/16 multiply both numerator and denominator by 8.​

3/8 = 6/16 multiply both numerator and denominator by 2.​

Step 2 : we can add the fractions since now they have the same denominator

8n/16 -2n/16 = 6/16​

(8n - 2n -6)/16 = 0​

(6n - 6)/16 = 0​

6n - 6 = 0​

​6n = 6

n = 6/6 = 1 This is the n value

Answer n = 1​

Hope this helps!​​​​​
