Question 25266
Simplifying
15(N + 15) = 0

Reorder the terms:
15(15 + N) = 0
(15 * 15 + N * 15) = 0
(225 + 15N) = 0

Solving
225 + 15N = 0

Solving for variable 'N'.

Move all terms containing N to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-225' to each side of the equation.
225 + -225 + 15N = 0 + -225

Combine like terms: 225 + -225 = 0
0 + 15N = 0 + -225
15N = 0 + -225

Combine like terms: 0 + -225 = -225
15N = -225

Divide each side by '15'.
N = -15

Simplifying
N = -15
