(n-6)(n+1)=0

Solution for (n-6)(n+1)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(n + -6)(n + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + n)(n + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + n)(1 + n) = 0

Multiply (-6 + n) * (1 + n)
(-6(1 + n) + n(1 + n)) = 0
((1 * -6 + n * -6) + n(1 + n)) = 0
((-6 + -6n) + n(1 + n)) = 0
(-6 + -6n + (1 * n + n * n)) = 0
(-6 + -6n + (1n + n2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -6n + 1n = -5n
(-6 + -5n + n2) = 0

Solving
-6 + -5n + n2 = 0

Solving for variable 'n'.
