What is the first step in solving the equation n/-2. 25=15. 6 ?

multiply both sides of the equation by n/-2. 25

multiply both sides of the equation by 15. 6

divide both sides of the equation by -2. 25

divide both sides of the equation by 15. 6

Answer 1

Multiply both sides of the equation by n/-2.25

Explanation:

`(n)/(-225)=15.6`

`\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2.25`

`(n\left(-2.25\right))/(-2.25)=15.6\left(-2.25\right)`

`\mathrm{Simplify}`

`n=-35.1`

Answer 2

• The answer is A. (multiply both sides of the equation by n/-2.25).
• The final answer is n=-35.1.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, first, you have to isolate the term of n from one side of the equation.

`\sf{(n)/(-2.25)=15.6 }`

The only way to solve this is to multiply both sides by -2.25.

`\sf{(n(-2.25))/(-2.25)=15.6(-2.25) }`

After that, you solve.

Multiply the numbers from left to right.

`\sf{15.6(-2.25)=\boxed{\sf{-35.1}}`

• n=-35.1

Don't forget to use a variable for your final answer.

• Therefore, the correct answer is n=-35.1 and A. multiply both sides of the equation by n/-2.25.
