Solve the equation: 4n - 12 = 14

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 4n - 12 = 14 \), follow these steps:

1. Add 12 to both sides of the equation: \[ 4n - 12 + 12 = 14 + 12 \] This simplifies to: \[ 4n = 26 \]

2. Divide both sides by 4: \[ n = \frac{26}{4} \] This simplifies to: \[ n = \frac{13}{2} \quad \text{or} \quad n = 6.5 \]

Thus, the solution to the equation is \(\boxed{6.5}\).
