Question

Which value of n makes the equation true?

2/3n = -12

Answer 1

`\Huge \boxed{N=-18}`

Explanation:

To solve this problem, first you have to isolate it on one side of the equation.

First, multiply 3 from both sides.

3*2/3n=3(-12)

Solve.

3*-12=-36

2n=-36

Next, divide 2 from both sides.

2n/2=-36/2

Solve.

-36/2=-18

Therefore, the correct answer is n=-18.

Answer 2

-1/18

Explanation:

Let's multiply left and right by 3n:

2 = -12 * 3n =>

-36n = 2

now divide by -36:

n = 2/-36 = -1/18
