To solve the equation |–3n| – 2 = 4, we can start by adding 2 to both sides of the equation: |–3n| = 6.

Then, we can remove the absolute value by considering both the positive and negative values of –3n: –3n = 6 or –3n = –6.

Solving the first equation gives us n = -2. Solving the second equation gives us n = 2/3.

So, the solutions to the equation are n = -2 or n = 2/3.
