The answer you are looking for is simply just n+6.

Solution/Explanation:

If you use the variable "n" to write an algebraic expression, for a number increased by 6, you must write it like this:

n+6.

And, also, increase obviously means the same thing as adding.

So, therefore, "n" stands for the number in this algebraic expression, and if you add 6 to that number "n," it must be n+6.

So, therefore, the final answer is n+6.

I hope that this has helped you. Enjoy your day, and take care!
