Colby · Answer 1

(n-5) / 2=5 (Multiply terms on both sides of the equation by 2)

n-5=10 (Add 5 to both sides of equation)

n=10+5

n=15

Lainey Castro · Answer 2

There are a few different ways to go about it.

I would do it like this:

(n - 5) / 2 = 5

Multiply each side of the equation by 2 : n - 5 = 10

Add 5 to each side of the equation: n = 15
