Get the variable alone by doing the same thing to both sides. You will divide 5 by both sides which gets you to 5n/5 = -20/5. You can then cancel out the 5n/5 to get just n. Then find the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator of -20/5, and then cancel out the GCF.

The answer is n = -4
