Solve the equation:
1 / 4p - 5n = 12 ========> n = 1 / 20p + -12 / 5
Let's solve for n:
1 / 4p - 5n = 12
Step 1: Add (-1) / 4p to both sides:
−5n +1 /4p +−1 /4p = 12 +−1 /4p
-5n - 1 / 4p + 12
Step 2: Divide both sides by -5.
-5n / - 5 = - 1 / 4p + 12 / -5
n = 1 / 20p + -12 / 5
Answer: 1 / 4p - 5n = 12 ========> n = 1 / 20p + -12 / 5
Hope that helps!!!! : )

Given:
The vet tells him his cat's weight is ⁵/₈ as his dog's weight.
Question:
How much does his cat weigh?
The Process:
Since the vet tells him his cat's weight is part of his dog's weight by ⁵/₈ part, let us create an 8-unit pattern that represents the dog's weight.
And now, let us find out the cat's weight. As we know, the cats' weight is ⁵/₈ the dog's weight.
The cat's weight:
Recall this
Recall this
as a mixed fraction
as a decimal fraction
Thus, his cat weigh is
