Answer:

26 5/12

Explanation:

n − 2/3 = 25 3/4 Add 2/3 to both sides

n - 2/3 + 2/3 = 25 3/4 + 2/3 Combine

n = 25 3/4 + 2/3

Work with the fractions

3/4 + 2/3 The lowest common denominator is 12

(3*3)/(3*4) = 9 / 12

(2*4)/(3*4) = 8/ 12

9/12 + 8/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12

Now you need to add 1 to 25

1 + 25 = 26

And add the fraction 5/12

The answer is 26 5/12
