To solve the equation 5n - 7 = 38, do whatever you do to one side of the equals sign to the other. So, add 7 to both sides. 5n = 38. Now divide both sides by 9. 5 = 9. To check your answer, replace the n with 9 and solve the equation. 5 x 9 - 7 = 38. Do the multiplacation first. 45 - 7 = 38. 38 = 38. The answer is correct.
