The value of n is 42/5

Let's solve the equation:

3× 1/5+n=9

Can be write it as

3/5+n=9

We can solve the equation by multiplying both sides by 5, rearranging the terms, and adding/subtracting to both sides.

Multiply both sides by 5:

3/5 +n=9

Rearrange terms:

n + 3/5 =9

Add/subtract to both sides:

n + 3/5​ − 3/5

=9 − 3/5

​Simplify:

n = 42/5
