2n + 8 = 24

[math_celebrity]

2n + 8 = 24

Solve for n in the equation 2n + 8 = 24

Step 1: Group constants:
We need to group our constants 8 and 24. To do that, we subtract 8 from both sides
2n + 8 - 8 = 24 - 8

Step 2: Cancel 8 on the left side:
2n = 16

Step 3: Divide each side of the equation by 2
2n/2 = 16/2

n = 8
