Answer:


\boxed{\sf{n=3}}

Explanation:

To find the value of n, you have to isolate it on one side of the equation.

3.5n=10.5

First, multiply by 10 from both sides.


\sf{3.5n*10=10.5*10}

Solve.

35n=105

Divide by 35 from both sides.

35n/35=105/35

Solve.

105/35=3

n=3

  • Therefore, the final answer is n=3.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
