    Algebra 2 simplify
    I have the answer I just do not know the book got it.:confused:

    Its 3n-24=14-30n and I have to solve it.

    The answer should be 1 and 5 over 33.

    Add 30n to both sides, add 24 to both sides. Now simplify and tell me what you get.

    3n-24 = 14-30n
    33n-24 = 14
    33n = 38
    n = 38/33
    n = 1.15
