Question

literally a free 50 points, just need the answer, What is the solution to the equation fraction 4 over 5 n minus fraction 1 over 5 equals fraction 2 over 5 n?

Answer 1

n = 1/2

Explanation:

So the equation is 4/5n - 1/5 = 2/5n.

So, the first thing that we need to do is get the variable on one side.

So, to do that we need to subtract 4/5n on both sides.

Now our equation is -1/5 = -2/5n

Now the last step is to simplify.

To do that, we need to multiply by the reciprocal of 2/5 on both sides.

That leaves us with 1/2 = n

Answer 2

n = 2

Explanation:

=>
`(4)/(5n) - (1)/(5) = (2)/(5n)`

Combining like terms

=>
`(4)/(5n ) - (2)/(5n) = (1)/(5)`

=>
`(4-2)/(5n) = (1)/(5)`

=>
`(2)/(5n)= (1)/(5)`

Cross Multiplying

=> 5n = 2*5

=> 5n = 10

Dividing both sides by 5

=> n = 2
