Answer :
(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
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
