Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(3 + n)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
3 + n = 0

Solving
3 + n = 0

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + n = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + n = 0 + -3
n = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
n = -3

Simplifying
n = -3
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + n)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + n = 0

Solving
1 + n = 0

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + n = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + n = 0 + -1
n = 0 + -1
