First subtract 1 from both sides...then divide both sides by 3. That's it.

ok subtract 1 from both sides 3n+1-1=6-1 3n=5 now divide both sides by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry typo it is 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtract 1 from both sides 3n+1-1=16-1 3n=15 now divide both sides by 3 3n/3=15/3 n=5
