Suppose you first want to eliminate the fraction in 4n=1/2(2n-12). What would your first step be? Is -2 still the solution when you start by eliminating the fraction first? Explain

Step-by-step explanation:

Recognize that the (1/2) in  4n=1/2(2n-12)  is a coefficient, the coefficient of the (2n - 12) term.

Thus, multiply both sides of this equation 4n=1/2(2n-12) by 2, to obtain:

8n = 2n - 12

Combining like terms, we get 6n = -12, so that n = -2.  

Multiplying both sides of the equation by a constant does not in any way affect your ability to find a solution and does not change the solution.

constants mean the stopped points or the points on a graph that nothing is changing, hope this
