To find the value of n, you can solve the equation step by step:
539 - (n + 110) = 442
First, simplify the left side of the equation by distributing the negative sign into the parentheses:
539 - n - 110 = 442
Now, combine like terms on the left side:
539 - 110 = 429 429 - n = 442
Now, to isolate n, you can subtract 429 from both sides of the equation:
429 - n - 429 = 442 - 429
This simplifies to:
-n = 442 - 429
Calculate the difference:
-n = 13
Now, to solve for n, multiply both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative sign:
n = -13
So, the value of n is -13.
