Hello there! :)

Answer:


\boxed{N=25}

*THE ANSWER SHOULD BE POSITIVE SIGN ONLY!*

Explanation:

First, you multiply by 10 from both sides of an equation.


0.5n*10=12.5*10

Multiply by the numbers or decimals from left/right.


12.5*10=125


5n=125

Then, you divide by 5 from both sides of an equation.


(5n)/(5)=(125)/(5)

Divide by the numbers from left/right.


125/5=25


\boxed{N=25}, is the FINAL/CORRECT ANSWER!

Hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)

:D
