0.8n+1.2⋅350=1.08(n+350)0.8n+1.2⋅350=1.08(n+350)
Step 1
Multiply 1.21.2 by 350350.
0.8n+420=1.08(n+350)0.8n+420=1.08(n+350)
Step 2
Step 2.1
Apply the distributive property.
0.8n+420=1.08n+1.08⋅3500.8n+420=1.08n+1.08⋅350
Step 2.2
Multiply 1.081.08 by 350350.
0.8n+420=1.08n+3780.8n+420=1.08n+378
0.8n+420=1.08n+3780.8n+420=1.08n+378
Step 3
Step 3.1
Subtract 1.08n1.08n from both sides of the equation.
0.8n+420-1.08n=3780.8n+420−1.08n=378
Step 3.2
Subtract 1.08n1.08n from 0.8n0.8n.
-0.28n+420=378−0.28n+420=378
-0.28n+420=378−0.28n+420=378
Step 4
Step 4.1
Subtract 420420 from both sides of the equation.
-0.28n=378-420−0.28n=378−420
Step 4.2
Subtract 420420 from 378378.
-0.28n=-42−0.28n=−42
-0.28n=-42−0.28n=−42
Step 5
Step 5.1
Divide each term in -0.28n=-42−0.28n=−42 by -0.28−0.28.
-0.28n-0.28=-42-0.28−0.28n−0.28=−42−0.28
Step 5.2
Simplify the left side.
Step 5.2.1
Cancel the common factor of -0.28−0.28.
Step 5.2.1.1
Cancel the common factor.
-0.28n-0.28=-42-0.28
Step 5.2.1.2
Divide n by 1.
n=-42-0.28
n=-42-0.28
n=-42-0.28
Step 5.3
Simplify the right side.
Step 5.3.1
Divide -42 by -0.28.
n=150
n=150
n=150
