Multi-Step:

Step 1 - Subtract 11n from both sides:

13n - 11n - 13 = 11n - 11n + 25
2n - 13 = n + 25

Step 2 - Add 13 to both sides:

2n - 13 + 13 = 25 + 13
2n = 38

Step 3 - Divide both sides by 2

2n/2 = 38/2
n = 19

I'm not quite sure what the two-step version would be, but this is the multi-step part of it. If someone else could help solve for the two-step, that'd be great! I hope this helped, though :)

Hello There!

13n - 13 = 11n + 25
Plus 13 to both sides:
13n - 13 + 13 = 11n + 25 + 13
Simplify it:
13n = 11n + 38
Subtract 11n from both sides:
13n - 11n = 11n + 38 - 11n
Simplify:
2n = 38
Divide by 2:
2n/2 = 38/2
Simplify it:
n = 19

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
