Question

what move can you make to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -3n on the right, so that all the n terms are on the left side of the equation?
1
\frac{4(8n + 36)}{16} = -3n + 13
\frac{8n + 36}{4} = -3n + 13
2n + 9 = -3n + 13

Explanation:

Step1: Eliminate $-3n$ on right

Add $3n$ to both sides:
$$\frac{8n+36}{4} +3n= -3n +13 +3n$$

Step2: Simplify both sides

$$\frac{8n+36}{4} +3n=13$$

Answer:

Add $3n$ to both sides of the equation to gather all $n$ terms on the left.
