Solve 2.3n+4.98=3n+2.6

$$2.3 n + 4.98 = 3 n + 2.6$$

Solve for n

$$n=3.4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 3n from both sides.

$$2.3n+4.98-3n=2.6$$

Combine 2.3n and -3n to get -0.7n.

$$-0.7n+4.98=2.6$$

Subtract 4.98 from both sides.

$$-0.7n=2.6-4.98$$

Subtract 4.98 from 2.6 to get -2.38.

$$-0.7n=-2.38$$

Divide both sides by -0.7.

$$n=\frac{-2.38}{-0.7}$$

Expand \frac{-2.38}{-0.7} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$n=\frac{-238}{-70}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-238}{-70} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -14.

$$n=\frac{17}{5}$$
