Recalling Equation Steps for Inventory Rules

As an inventory coordinator, you are reviewing a training module that uses the following rule to determine required shipments: 'The sum of three times the number of shipments (nn) and seven is twenty-five.' This yields the algebraic equation 3n+7=25{}3n + 7 = 25. According to the step-by-step problem-solving strategy outlined in the module, what is the very first mathematical operation performed on both sides to solve this equation, and what is the final calculated value of nn?
