Answer:

25.08

Explanation:

-12n - 2 = -303

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, n. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, add 2 to both sides:

-12n - 2 (+2) = -303 (+2)

-12n = -303 + 2

-12n = -301

Next, divide -12 from both sides:

(-12n)/-12 = (-301)/-12

n = -301/-12 = 301/12

n = 25.08 (rounded).
