Solving
4 + -1n = 0

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

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + -1n = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + -1n = 0 + -4
-1n = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
-1n = -4

Divide each side by '-1'.
n = 4

Simplifying
n = 4
Solution
n = {-15, 4}
