Answer:

n = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{n}{3} - 7 = 17[/tex]

Using the addition property add 7 to both sides

That's

[tex] \frac{n}{3} + 7 - 7 = 17 + 7 \\ \frac{n}{3} = 24[/tex]

Next multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction

That's

[tex]3 \times \frac{n}{3} = 24 \times 3[/tex]

We have the final answer as

n = 72

Hope this helps you
