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!
