Question

How do you solve this ?
74 - 3n = n -22

Answer 1

You said 74 - 3n = n - 22

Add 3n to each side: 74 = 4n - 22

Add 22 to each side: 96 = 4n

Divide each side by 4 : 24 = n

Answer 2

solve your equation step-by-step.

74−3n=n−22

Simplify both sides of the equation.

74−3n=n−22

74+−3n=n+−22

−3n+74=n−22

Subtract n from both sides.

−3n+74−n=n−22−n

−4n+74=−22

Subtract 74 from both sides.

−4n+74−74=−22−74

−4n=−96

Divide both sides by -4.

−4n/−4 = −96/−4

n=24
