To solve the equation \( \frac{2}{3}n - 6 = -8 \), follow these steps: 1. **Add 6 to both sides:** \[ \frac{2}{3}n - 6 + 6 = -8 + 6 \] \[ \frac{2}{3}n = -2 \] 2. **Multiply both sides by \( \frac{3}{2} \) to solve for \( n \):** \[ n = -2 \times \frac{3}{2} \] \[ n = -3 \] Thus, the solution to the equation is \( n = -3 \).

To solve the equation \( \frac{2}{3}n - 6 = -8 \), follow these steps:

Add 6 to both sides: \[ \frac{2}{3}n - 6 + 6 = -8 + 6 \] \[ \frac{2}{3}n = -2 \]
Multiply both sides by \( \frac{3}{2} \) to solve for \( n \): \[ n = -2 \times \frac{3}{2} \] \[ n = -3 \]

Thus, the solution to the equation is \( n = -3 \).
