Didn't I just respond to this question?

Let's do together what I wrote above.
First, we factor out n.
n^2 - 3n = 0
n(n - 3) = 0
@Keridavis ok so far?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Now we set each factor equal to zero.
n = 0 or n - 3 = 0
OK?
OpenStudy (haseeb96):
@Keridavis u have asked a lot of questions of factorization but u dont know how to solve it why?
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Now we solve the right equation, and we get
n = 0 or n = 3
The answer is choices D and E.
