-4(n-6)=12
Distribute -4 to the numbers in the parentheses;
-4n+24=12
-4n=-12
n=3

If you would like to solve the equation - 4 * (n - 6) = 12, you can calculate this using the following steps:

- 4 * (n - 6) = 12
- 4 * n + 4 * 6 = 12
- 4 * n = 12 - 4 * 6
- 4 * n = 12 - 24
- 4 * n = - 12      /(-4)
n = 12 / 4
n = 3

The correct result would be 3.
