-133=63+nX-X-4
Use the distributive property to multiply n-1 by X.
-133=59+nX-X
Subtract 4 from 63 to get 59.
59+nX-X=-133
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
nX-X=-133-59
Subtract 59 from both sides.
nX-X=-192
Subtract 59 from -133 to get -192.
\left(n-1\right)X=-192
Combine all terms containing X.
\frac{\left(n-1\right)X}{n-1}=-\frac{192}{n-1}
Divide both sides by n-1.
X=-\frac{192}{n-1}
Dividing by n-1 undoes the multiplication by n-1.

nX-X=-192
Subtract 59 from -133 to get -192.
nX=-192+X
Add X to both sides.
Xn=X-192
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{Xn}{X}=\frac{X-192}{X}
Divide both sides by X.
n=\frac{X-192}{X}
Dividing by X undoes the multiplication by X.
