Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the term of n from one side of the equation.
<h3>n-1/8=3/8</h3><u>First, add by 1/8 from both sides.</u>
n-1/8+1/8=3/8+1/8
<u>Solve.</u>
<u>Add the numbers from left to right.</u>
3/8+1/8=4/8
<u>Common factor of 4.</u>
4/4=1
8/4=2
<u>Rewrite as a fraction.</u>
=1/2
n=1/2
<u>Divide is another option.</u>
1/2=0.5
n=1/2=0.5
- <u>Therefore, the final answer is n=1/2=0.5.</u>
