Answer:
2
We first use the distributive property on both sides:
1/2(n)-1/2(4)-3 = 3-(2n)-(3)
1/2n - 2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3
Combining like terms on both sides,
1/2n - 5 = -2n
Subtracting 1/2n from both sides:
1/2n - 5 - 1/2n = -2n - 1/2n
-5 = (-2 1/2)n
Divide both sides by -2 1/2:
-5/(-2 1/2) = (-2 1/2)n/(-2 1/2)
2 = n
