Answer:
[tex]n = 32[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operation, and equals:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction.

First, add 10 to both sides of the equation:
[tex]\frac{n}{2} - 10 = 6\\\ \\\frac{n}{2}- 10 (+10) = 6 (+10)\\ \\\frac{n}{2} = 6 + 10\\\\\frac{n}{2} = 16[/tex]
Next, isolate the variable n by multiply 2 to both sides of the equation:
[tex]\frac{n}{2} = 16[/tex]
[tex]\frac{n}{2} *2 = 16 * 2[/tex]
[tex]n = 16 * 2\\n = 32[/tex]
[tex]n = 32[/tex] is your answer.
