How do you solve an equation with a whole number and fraction with a variable if the equation is 24+n/4=10

To change a/x=d/a to a²=cd, you need to take the following steps:
 
 1. Pass the "a" to the left side and the "c" to the right side:
 
 (a)(a)/c=d
 (a)(a)=cd
 
 2. Finally, multiply "a" by "a": 
 
 a²=cd   (By definition, when you have to multiply exponents with the same base, you should add the exponents. As you can see, both bases "a" have exponents 1, so, when you multiply them, you have to rewrite the base and then add these exponents: a^1+1=a²).
