You can put this solution on YOUR website!
To explain this question to your daughter:
\n" ); document.write( "\"10n=8\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We need to make N stand alone(isolated), so we can find its value.
\n" ); document.write( "To do this, we need to make N on one side of the equal side, and everything else on the other.
\n" ); document.write( "So, we are going to bring this 10 to the other side of the equal side with the 8.
\n" ); document.write( "when we bring numbers to the other side of the equal side, we change the sign. so, if it is a positive 10, when we bring it over, its going to turn into a negatve 10.
\n" ); document.write( "now, we have \"n=8-10\"
\n" ); document.write( "we bring this down to \"n=0.8\", the final answer.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
