Question

If 3(n+8)=36 what is the value of n

Answer 1

Answer:

4 is the value of n

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to get the n by itself, which means dividing the 3...

36 / 3 = 12 -- So your equation looks like this n+8=12, subtract the 8 to get 4

12-8 = 4, once you plug the 4 back into the normal equation you get 36

3(4+8)=36

Answer 2

Answer:

Thus, n = 4 is the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  perform the indicated multiplication, obtaining 3n + 24 = 36

2.  Subtract 24 from both sides:   3n = 12

3.  Solve this result for n:  n = 12/3.  Thus, n = 4 is the solution.
