(4n - 28)/3 = 2n
4n - 28 = 6n {multiply by 3}
-2n = 28 {subtract 6n, add 28}
n = -14 {divide by -2)

Multiply the 3 to the other side : 4n -28 = 2n x 3

then it is 4n - 28 =6n

then subtract the 4n from 6n : -28 = 2n

divide -28 by 2 to get n alone : -28/2 = n

and you get -14=n

4n- 28/3 = 2n

3(4n - 28)/3 = 3(2n)

4n - 28 = 6n

4n - 28 - 4n = 6n - 4n

- 28 = 2n

- 28/2 = 2n/2

- 14 = n

The answer is n = - 14

Insert the n value into the equation

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

4n - 28/3 = 2n

[4(-14) - 28] /3 = 2(-14)

[- 56 - 28 ] / 3 = - 28

[- 84]/ 3 = - 28

- 84 /3 = - 28

- 28 = - 28

(4n - 28)/3 = 2n
4n - 28 = 6n {multiply by 3}
-2n = 28 {subtract 6n, add 28}
n = -14 {divide by -2)

Check
(4n - 28)/3 = 2n
(4(-14) - 28)/3 = 2(-14)
(-56 - 28)/3 = - 28
- 84/3 = - 28
- 28 = - 28

Multiply both sides by 3. This gives you:

4n - 28 = 2n x 3

which is

4n - 28 = 6n

then subtract 4n from both sides which leaves you with

-28 = 2n

then divide both sides by 2 giving you

-14 = n

3 ~ 4n - 28 ~~~~ 3
-- x --------- = 2n x --
1 ~~~ 3 ~~~~~~ 1


4n - 28 = 6n
-28 = 6n - 4n
-28 = 2n
-14 = n

(ignore the ~. I had to put them in there to keep the formatting right).

4n - 28 = 2n * 3
4n - 28 = 6n
-28 = 6n-4n
-28 = 2n
-14 = n
