Solve: m - 5 1/2 = 2 3/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just add 5 1/2 to both sides to get the m alone...If it makes it easier to add just turn them both into improper fractoons so you would have 11/2 +13/5 and then find a common denominator so it would be 55/10+26/10 giving you m= 81/10 which you can then simplify to 8 1/10

so m= 8 1/10
