Cross-Multiply Fractions: To solve for n, we will cross-multiply the two fractions.n11=58 becomes 11∗5=n∗8.
Perform Multiplication: Now, perform the multiplication on the left side of the equation.11∗5=55, so the equation becomes 55=n∗8.
Isolate Variable: Next, we need to isolate n by dividing both sides of the equation by 8.55=n∗8 becomes n=855.
Simplify Fraction: Finally, we simplify the fraction855 if possible. Since 55 and 8 have no common factors other than 1, the fraction is already in its simplest form.So, n=855.
