+ =
:
Multiply equation 2n^2 to get rid of the denominators
2n^2* + 2n^2* = 2n^2
cancel out the denominators and you have:
1 + 5n = 2(n-2)
1 + 5n = 2n - 4
:
5n - 2n = -4 - 1
3n = -5
n =
:
Check solution in original equation using decimals; -5/3 = -1.67:
+ =
+ =
.18 - 1.50 = -1.31; close enough to confirm our solution
