The expression that is equivalent to one over four n − 16 is one over four (n − 4).

Certainly! The original expression is "one over four n − 16". To find the equivalent expression, we can simplify it by separating it into two terms: "one over four n" and "- 16".

The term "one over four n" can be further simplified by factoring out the common factor of n. This gives us "n * (one over four)". Therefore, the equivalent expression is "one over four (n)".

On the other hand, the expression "n − 4" is not equivalent to the original expression because it does not have the additional "- 16" term. Similarly, the expressions "n − 64" and "4(n − 64)" are not equivalent as they both differ from the original expression by the coefficients (4 instead of one over four) and constants (- 64 instead of - 16).
