To solve the equation \( \frac{n}{5} + 10 = -20 \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 10 from both sides: \[ \frac{n}{5} = -20 - 10 \] \[ \frac{n}{5} = -30 \]

  2. Multiply both sides by 5 to isolate \( n \): \[ n = -30 \times 5 \] \[ n = -150 \]

So, the solution to the equation is \( n = -150 \).

The correct response is: -150
