Transfer 6n from LHS... and in the process.... leave LHS 0
n^2-6n=0
Factorize n out of them
n(n-6)=0
Divide both sides by n
n-6=0
Transfer 6
n=6'

Or simply...
n^2=6n
nxxcanceln=6xxcanceln
n=6

Or......
n=0

n=0orn=6

Explanation:

n^2=6n

=>n^2-6n=0

=>n(n-6)=0

=>n=0orn-6=0

n=0orn=6

Note:
If ninN,then,n=0!inN,=>n=6

But if, ninZorninR=>n=0orn=6
