Answer:

n = 64

Explanation:

think of P.E.D.M.A.S.

-Subtract from both sides of the equation

3n/8 + 1 = 25 / 3n/8 = 24

-next, multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

8 x 3n/8 = 8 x 24

-then, cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator

3n = 8 x 24

-after that, multiply the numbers

3n = 192

then, divide both sides by three

3n/3 192/3

and last, you get (n = 64)

Answer:

3n/8 +1=25

3n/8= 25-1

3n/8=24

Multiply both sides by 8 to clear the fraction on the left

3n=24x8

n=24x8/3

n=64
