Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You are told to round the number to the nearest whole number.

That means if the decimal is lower than 5 in the tenths place, the number would round down, and if the decimal is equal to or higher than 5 in the tenths place, the number would round up.


5(5)/(6) is equal to 5.833. The number 8 is greater than 5, so the number rounds up to 6.


6(1)/(9) is equal to 6.111. The number 1 is less than 5, so the number rounds down to 6.

Now we have the equation n - 6 = 6.

We solve for n.

Add 6 to both sides.

n = 12

n is equal to 12.
