\tt Step-by-step~explanation:

To solve for n, we have to isolate n. To do so, we move all the terms that are not n to one side of the equation, and leave n on the other side.


\tt Steps:

Equation: n + 5/16 = -1

Subtract 5/16 on both sides to bring it to the right side of the equation.


\tt n+5/16-5/16=-1-5/16\\\\n=-(21)/(16)~or~-1(5)/(16)


\Large\boxed{\tt Our~final~answer:~n=-(21)/(16)~or~-1(5)/(16) }
