Hey there!

Let's first define our goal. Our goal here is to be able to isolate the variable, n, and solve for it by moving everything to the other side. We see that we have two sides of the equation, and by using the property of equality which states that whatever you do to one side you do to the other and the expression remains equal, we can solve this equation.

It looks like the only thing we have on the left side with n is that 6 1/2. In order to get rid of it, we must subtract it from both sides, because the property of equality states you must do the inverse operation.

We have:

n = 12 - 6 1/2

n = 5 1/2

Hope this helps!

Accuracy vs precision
Naily [24]
Accuracy is how close a measured item is to the actual or true value and precision is how close the measured items are to being the same.  So you could weight 5 apples.  If each apple weights 2 lbs and you said that the 5 apples weight a total of 10lbs you are determining the precision.  Precision is independent of accuracy.  Accuracy would be if you put all 5 apples on the scale at one time and knew a exact amount.
