solve the following equation
-9=5/17n
To solve the equation -9 = 5/17n, we need to isolate n.
First, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 17 to eliminate the fraction:
-9 * 17 = (5/17n) * 17
-153 = 5n
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for n:
-153 / 5 = (5n) / 5
-30.6 = n
Therefore, the solution to the equation -9 = 5/17n is n = -30.6.
