 n = fraction 5 over 2

anonymous · Answer

this is why mathemeticians invented fraction notation
do you mean $$\frac{3}{5}n-\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{5}n$$ like that?

anonymous · Answer

lol yes sorry

anonymous · Answer

no problem
fractions are annoying
get rid of them by multiplying everything by 5, i.e. rewrite is with no denominators

anonymous · Answer

clear, or no?

anonymous · Answer

anonymous · Answer

or did i do it wrong

anonymous · Answer

i don't think so
solve $$3n-4=n$$

anonymous · Answer

i mean "i don't think the answer is -1"
