Answer:


  • \boxed{\sf{n=(1)/(2)=0.5 }}

Explanation:

Isolate the term of n from one side of the equation.

n-1/8=3/8

First, add by 1/8 from both sides.

n-1/8+1/8=3/8+1/8

Solve.

Add the numbers from left to right.

3/8+1/8=4/8

Common factor of 4.

4/4=1

8/4=2

Rewrite as a fraction.

=1/2

n=1/2

Divide is another option.

1/2=0.5

n=1/2=0.5

  • Therefore, the final answer is n=1/2=0.5.

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