25n=25

The value of n is 1. The property used is multiplicative identity property.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. State the property.

The multiplicative identity property states that for any number a, the product of a and 1 is a.

So, a1=a.

Step 2. Write the given equation.

The given equation is 25n=25.

Step 3. Solve the given equation.

Put a=25 in a1=a to get,

251=25

Compare 251=25 with 25n=25 to get,

n=1

So, the solution of the given equation is n=1 and the property used is the multiplicative identity property.
