86=2n+16+12n
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by -4-3n.
86=14n+16
Combine 2n and 12n to get 14n.
14n+16=86
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
14n=86-16
Subtract 16 from both sides.
14n=70
Subtract 16 from 86 to get 70.
n=\frac{70}{14}
Divide both sides by 14.
n=5
Divide 70 by 14 to get 5.
