Solve the following equation

5(n-1)+3=5008

Solve for n

5(n - 1) + 3 = 5008

Simplify by removing parentheses
Simplify 5(n - 1):
Distribute the 5 to each term in (n-1)
5 * n = (5 * 1)n = 5n
5 * -1 = (5 * -1) = -5
Our Total expanded term is 5n-5

Our new term is
5n - 5 + 3 = 5008

Simplify by removing parentheses
Our new term is
5n - 5 + 3 = 5008

Group the constants on the left

-5 + 3 = -2

Form modified equation

5n - 2 = + 5008

Group constants

Group our constants -2 and 5008.
add 2 to both sides

5n - 2 + 2 = 5008 + 2

Cancel 2 on the left side:

5n = 5010

Divide each side of the equation by 5

5n
