To determine

To solve the equation

Answer to Problem 29PG

Value of n is 59.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Equation is $\frac{1}{4}(n+5)=16$

Calculation:

The given equation is $\frac{1}{4}(n+5)=16$

Multiplying equation by 4,

  $\frac{1}{4}(n+5)\times 4=16\times 4$

So,

  $n+5=64$

Subtracting 5 to both side of equation,

  $n+5-5=64-5$

And,

  $n=59$

Hence, value of n is 59.
