ANSWER

N = 11

Step-by-step explanation

Given:

3N + 5 = 38

Desired Outcome:

Value of N

Solve for N


\begin{gathered} 3N+5=38 \\ subtract\text{ 5 from both sides} \\ 3N+5-5=38-5 \\ 3N=33 \\ divide\text{ both sides by 3} \\ (3N)/(3)=(33)/(3) \\ N=11 \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of N is 11.
