\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

  • What is, m/n = p-6. Solve for n.


\large \boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER\: WITH\: EXPLANATION} \downarrow}


\sf \: \frac { m } { n } = p - 6 \\

Variable n cannot be equal to 0 as division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by n.


\sf \: m=np+n\left(-6\right)

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left-hand side.


\sf \: np+n\left(-6\right)=m

Combine all terms containing n.


\sf\left(p-6\right)n=m

Divide both sides by p-6.


\sf(\left(p-6\right)n)/(p-6)=(m)/(p-6) \\

Cancel (p-6) by p-6.


\sf \: n =(m)/(p-6) \\

Variable n cannot be equal to 0.


\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: n=(m)/(p-6)\text{, }n\\eq 0 }}
