first distribute: 8(4n)+8(13)
32n+104=6n
-32n -32n
104=-26n
/-26 /-26
-4=n
8(4(-4)+13)=6(-4)
8(-3)=-24
-24=-24

8(4n + 13) = 6n
Use distributive property so :8 (4n) = 32n and 8(13) = 104
32n + 104 = 6n
Subtract 32n from each side and you will get:
104 = 26n
then you divide each side by 26 and your answer will be:
n = 4
