Question

2/12 =14 + 9/12m

Answer 1

Solving for m?

Answer 2

First start by subtracting -14 from both sides

\(\sf \frac{2}{12} - 14\) = \(\frac{9}{12}m\)

Answer 3

What do you get on te left hand side?

Answer 4

the easiest way would probably to multiply both sides by 12 \[12(\frac{ 2 }{ 12 })=14+\frac{ 9 }{ 12 }m\]

Answer 5

You are only multiplying one side by 12 there.

Answer 6

yeah. I forgot to put it in. anyways, the new equation would be\[2=168+9m\]

Answer 7

subtract both sides by 168 and divide by 9.\[-166=9m\]
\[m=-\frac{ 166 }{ 9 }\]

Answer 8

then just simplify
