alright heres what we do... multiply out the denominator
2800
-------- = 0
m + 500
2800 = m + 500
solve
2300 = m
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont get it lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
to get something out of a denominator of a fraction, we need to multiply the fraction by the denominator, and we totally cancel it out. whatever we do to one side of the equation we do to the other, so we multiply the other side by m + 500. Then we subtract 500 from both sides to get m by itself
