Question 744539: n-3=4n
Answer by lenny460(1073)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! n - 3 = 4n
Subtract n from each side of the equation.
n - 3 - n = 4n - n
Combine like terms:
n - n = 0
4n - n = 3n
We now have:
-3 = 3n or
3n = -3
Divide each side by 3
3n/3 = -3/3
n = -1
Answer:
n = -1
