Hey there!


(2)/(3) n
+ 8
=(1)/(2) n
+2

Firstly, we have to SUBTRACT by
(1)/(2)n on each of your SIDES


(2)/(3)n
+ 8
-
(1)/(2)n
=
(1)/(2) n
+2
-
(1)/(2) n

We get the result of ↓


(1)/(6)n
+ 8
= 2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Secondly we have to SUBTRACT by
8 on each of your SIDES


(1)/(6) n+
8-8
= 2
-8


2 -
8
= -
6

We get the result of ↓


(1)/(6) n
=-
6

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thirdly, we have to MULTIPLY by
6 on each of your SIDES


6
((1)/(6)n)
=
6(-6)


6(-6)
-36

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ANSWER:


n
=
-36
