3/((1-n))=5

\frac{3}{( 1 - n )} = 5

n = \frac{2}{5}

Decimal Notation

n = 0.4

Solution steps

\frac{3}{( 1 - n )} = 5

Simplify

\frac{3}{( 1 - n )} : \frac{3}{1 - n}

\frac{3}{1 - n} = 5

Multiply both sides by

1 - n

3 = 5 (1 - n)

Switch sides

5 (1 - n) = 3

Divide both sides by

5

1 - n = \frac{3}{5}

Move

1

to the right side

- n = - \frac{2}{5}

Divide both sides by

- 1

n = \frac{2}{5}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

n = 1

Combine undefined points with solutions:

n = \frac{2}{5}

\frac{4 x}{x + 6} - 1 = \frac{9}{x + 6}

\frac{x ^{2} - 4}{x ^{2}} = 0

3 x - 1 = \frac{1}{x}

\frac{3}{x - 2} = \frac{2}{x - 2}

\frac{x}{x - 3} + 4 = \frac{2 x - 3}{x - 3}
