1 answer

To solve the equation \( 50.3 ( n + 9.25 ) = -120.72 \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Divide both sides by 50.3 to isolate \( n + 9.25 \):

\[ n + 9.25 = \frac{-120.72}{50.3} \]

Calculating the right side:

\[ n + 9.25 = -2.4 \]

  1. Now isolate \( n \) by subtracting 9.25 from both sides:

\[ n = -2.4 - 9.25 \]

Calculating the right side:

\[ n = -11.65 \]

Therefore, the solution is:

\[ \boxed{-11.65} \]
