In this equation we are trying to find the value of n.
0.96 + 0.2n = 0.16 (12+n)
First simplify the equation. In this case, we only need to simplify the right side.
0.96 + 0.2n = 1.92 + .16n
Since the variable is on both sides, you must eliminate it from one side.
0.96 + 0.04n = 1.92
Now subtract 0.96 from both sides.
0.04n = 0.96
Divide 0.04 from both sides.
n = 24
