Answer (2)

n − 2 4 1 ​ = 1 6 1 ​ ∣ + 2 4 1 ​ − 2 4 1 ​ + 2 4 1 ​ = 1 6 1 ​ + 2 4 1 ​ = 1 6 1 ​ + 2 4 1 ​ t h e co mm o n d e n o mina t or i s 12 = 1 12 2 ​ + 2 12 3 ​ = 3 12 2 + 3 ​ = 3 12 5 ​

To solve for n in the equation n − 2 4 1 ​ = 1 6 1 ​ , we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions and isolate n by adding 2 4 1 ​ to both sides. The final answer is n = 3 12 5 ​ .
