Hey there!

“ n/5 = 7 ”

Usually whenever you have a letter value in mathematics it’s understood as a(n) UNKNOWN value; people label them as a invisible 1

~ FIRST: you have to MULTIPLY both of your SIDES by 5

1n/5 • 5 = 7 • 5

~ CANCEL out; 1/5 • 5 because that gives you a 1
~KEEP: 7 • 5 because it gives the value of your “n”

New equation: n = 7 • 5

7 • 5 = 35

Answer: n = 35 ☑️

Regular division problem: 35/5 = 7 so this makes it true!

Random fact; math actually repeats a lot.. so it can become easier for you to understand or tackle problems like this on your own!

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
