2.9n + 1.7 = 3.5 + 2.3n

Multiply each term by 10: 29n + 17 = 35 + 23n (gets rid of the decimals)

Subtract 17 from both sides: 29n = 18 + 23n (gets rid of number from the left)

Subtract 23n from both sides: 6n = 18 (gets rid of n from the right)

Divide both sides by 6: n = 3

You do not need to carry out the first step if you are comfortable working with decimals.
