Calculated Answer

42

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate (n₁ * n₂) / (n₂ - n₀).

• (n₁ * n₂) / (n₂ - n₀)

• Evaluate n₁ * n₂ = 84

  84 / (n₂ - n₀)

• Evaluate n₂ - n₀ = 2

  84 / 2

• Evaluate 84 / 2 = 42

  42
• The answer to the problem and the result of (n₁ * n₂) / (n₂ - n₀) is 42
