8n + 16.2 = 1.6 what is n

8n + 16.2 = 1.6 what is n

subtract both sides by 16.2

8n + 16.2 - 16.2 = 1.6 - 16.2

Simplify

8n = - 14.6

divide both sides by 8

8n/8 = - 14.6/8

simplify

n = - 1.825

Simplifying 8n + 16.2 = 1.6 Reorder the terms: 16.2 + 8n = 1.6 Solving 16.2 + 8n = 1.6 Solving for variable 'n'. Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-16.2' to each side of the equation. 16.2 + - 16.2 + 8n = 1.6 + - 16.2 Combine like terms: 16.2 + - 16.2 = 0.0 0.0 + 8n = 1.6 + - 16.2 8n = 1.6 + - 16.2 Combine like terms: 1.6 + - 16.2 = - 14.6 8n = - 14.6 Divide each side by '8'. n = - 1.825 Simplifying n = - 1.825
