Explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

186 = 6(3n + 7)

Step 2: Solve for n

1. Divide 6 on both sides: 31 = 3n + 7
2. Isolate n term: 24 = 3n
3. Isolate n: 8 = n
4. Rewrite: n = 8

Step 3: Check

Plug in n into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

1. Substitute in n: 186 = 6(3(8) + 7)
2. Multiply: 186 = 6(24 + 7)
3. Add: 186 = 6(31)
4. Multiply: 186 = 186

Here we see that 186 does indeed equal 186.

∴ n = 8 is the solution to the equation.
