Single-Variable Equation Practice

For those of you who want a bit more practice working with variables, here are a few equations to try. Your job is to figure out what the letter ("n") equals, but you must show your work, even if you can solve these in your head. 

1. n - 7 = 5
2. n + 4 = 16
3. n - 3 = 11 
4. n x 5 = 15

Remember, your equation is like a teeter-totter, so whatever you do to one side you must also do to the other.
