Question

what does the m in 4+m/8=3/4 stand for

Answer 1

\[\frac{4+m}{8}=\frac{3}{4}\]

Answer 2

4+ m/8 = 3/4
m/8 = 3/4 - 4
m/8 = (3-16)/4
m/8 = -13/4
m = -26/4

Answer 3

if it is (4+m)/8 = 3/4
4+m = (3)(8)/4
4+m = 6
m = 2

Answer 4

It could be any letter,not just m but a or b, etc, it is what is called a variable, a stand-in for a number that you will calculate as has been done above...

Answer 5

Here, \(\rm m\) is your unknown constant.
