Question

$$323:17=n:23$$

Solve for n

$n=437$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by $391$, the least common multiple of $17,23$.

$$23\times 323=17n$$

Multiply $23$ and $323$ to get $7429$.

$$7429=17n$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$17n=7429$$

Divide both sides by $17$.

$$n=\frac{7429}{17}$$

Divide $7429$ by $17$ to get $437$.

$$n=437$$
