n\text{ = 0.8}

Here, we want to solve for the value of n

What this simply mean is to isolate n on the lefthand side of the equation

We proceed as follows;

Divide both sides by 3


\begin{gathered} n\text{ + 1 = }(5.4)/(3) \\ \\ n\text{ + 1 = 1.8} \\ \\ n\text{ = 1.8-1} \\ \\ n\text{ = 0.8} \end{gathered}
