I need help finding a solution to this equation: 5 (n-1/10)=1/2

n = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5(n− 1 /10 )= 1/ 2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(n− 1 /10 )= 1 /2

(5)(n)+(5)( −1 /10 )= 1/2

(Distribute)

5n +  −1 /2 = 1 /2

Step 2: Add 1/2 to both sides.

5n +  −1 /2  +  1 /2  =  1 /2  +  1 /2

5n=1  

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5n /5  =  1 /5

n=  1 /5
