Question

n/8 -3 =16

yes
no

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( \frac{n}{8} - 3 = 16 \), we can follow these steps:

1. Add 3 to both sides of the equation: \[ \frac{n}{8} = 16 + 3 \] \[ \frac{n}{8} = 19 \]

2. Multiply both sides by 8 to solve for \( n \): \[ n = 19 \times 8 \] \[ n = 152 \]

So, the solution is \( n = 152 \).

If you were to ask whether \( n \) satisfies the original equation, we can plug in \( n = 152 \):

\[ \frac{152}{8} - 3 = 19 - 3 = 16 \]

Since this is true, the answer to your question (if \( n = 152 \) is the correct solution) is yes.
