Answer:

The answer is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

3+8n=3(2n-1) would be the equation. To find the number, solve for n.

3+8n= 6n-3   First distribute the 3 to 2n and -1.

3+2n=-3          Subtract 6n from each side.

2n=-6              Subtract 3 from each side.

n=-3                 Divide by 2 on each side.

n=-3 is your final answer :)
