'\n' is the backslash character constant. specifically, it is an escape sequence. Thus to print backslash character itself put backslash (\) before that character.

If we put "ffn" in printf it showing output as ffn. But in question, they asked to print "fn".

\n changes the line. But we wanna print \n so we have to take one "\".

The question is quite ambiguous - not clear whether a string or the character \n is wanted t print.
