N=8
If you set 2/3 equal to n/12 then you multiple 3 by 4 to get 12. So you have to multiple 2 by 4 to get N.
This would be 11.83 I hope you pass your test/quiz :)

I'm not totally sure, but it might be y= x/7.
Answer: Both the equations when solved have different answers, the solutions for both the equation are given below. In the the first equation 4 (x-3)=16 , 4 is multiplied with both the terms in the bracket. Whereas, in the second equation 4x- 2 = 16 there is no variable to multiply with the LHS equation
Solution:
4 (x-3)=16
4x - 12 = 16
4x = 16 + 12
4x = 28
x = 7
4x - 3 = 16
4x = 16 + 3
4x = 19
x = 19/4
x = 4.75
