Have you considered the Distributive Property?

-(m-15) = ??

@donny471 Please never do that.  It is entirely contrary to the Code of Conduct.

@donny471, don't just give the answer. 
1. Explain the process 
2. Provide general formulas 
3. Provide steps whenever possible 
4. Include the user in the answering process.

Well, did you do it?  Go ahead and use that Distributive Property.

What did you get and why?

I got 18 because if you figure out the Distributive Property it ends up being the only answer that's correct. Haha
