Question

Find the value of n in this equation
4/2*(n+1)=32

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Simplify. 4/2 =2 so

2(n+1) = 32

2. Divide both sides by 2. 2(n+1) = 32

You don't have to distribute. 2 2

You don't need ( ) anymore. n + 1 = 16

3. Subtract 1 from each side. - 1 -1

n = 15

4. Check by subbing answer into equation. 2(15 + 1) =

2(16) = 32
