Question 408277
You applied the distributive property incorrectly. When you multiplied 12(n-3)/2 = 6(n-3) in step 2, you wrote 6n-3 instead of 6n-18. Also, 12(4n-1)/6 = 8n-2, not 8n-1. It should be:


{{{(n-3)/2 - (4n-1)/6 = 2/3}}}


{{{12(n-3)/2 - 12(4n-1)/6 = 12(2/3)}}}


{{{(6n - 18) - (8n - 2) = 8}}}


{{{-2n - 16 = 8}}}


{{{-2n = 24}}} --> n = -12
