    n = 3n - 1/2

    Solve for n in the equation n = 3n - 1/2

    Step 1: Group variables:
    We need to group our variables n and 3n. To do that, we subtract 3n from both sides
    n - 3n = 3n - 0.5 - 3n

    Step 2: Cancel 3n on the right side:
    -2n = -0.5

    Step 3: Divide each side of the equation by -2
    -2n/-2 = -0.5/-2

    n = 0.25 or 1/4
