You're on the right track. Start by combining like terms on the left side of the equation by adding 56 and 34.

90 = n + 30, now subtract 30 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable n.

60 = n is the answer.

56 + 34 = n + 30

90 = n + 30 added like terms on the left side (56 + 34)

-30 -30 subtracted 30 from both sides to isolate n

60 = n
