I need the steps to solve this equation! Medal!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[M = \frac{ 100-40}{ 2}\] I know it's 2m = 60 or whatever but what are the steps?

Need answer fast Will give medal What is the solution to the equation -5=8m+12/4 M= What http://static.k12.com/bank_packages/files/media/mathml_34efec2888329d378c42ec5edf2f4e98683a8116_1.gif ?

Example 1: Solve: Since 5 is the only denominator, multiply the entire equation by 5: So: becomes which is 2x + 5 = 13 and x = 4 Remember to multiply every term by 5, including the 1 (from the equation). Answer: x = 4 Example 2: Solve: The common denominator is 15. Multiply every term by 15: 5•(x) – 3•(2x) = - 7 5x – 6x = - 7 -x = -7, so x = 7 Answer: x = 7 Example 3: Solve: The common denominator is 10. Multiply every term by 10: Answer: x = -64 In this problem, since the first numerator (x + 3) contained more than one term, it was necessary to use parentheses when multiplying. For problems like this one, be sure to WRITE OUT the problem using ( ) to avoid making careless errors. Example 4: Solve: The common denominator is 2x. Multiply each term by 2x: Answer: x = 5 and x = -2 Since this problem is in the form of a proportion, it can also be solved by using "cross multiply". (In a proportion, the product of the means equals the product of the extremes.)
