Sign In
How can we isolate m on the left-hand side?
m=0.8
To solve the equation, we have to isolate m on one side of the equation. By multiplying both sides of the equation by 10, and then dividing by 16, we can remove the coefficient from m.
LHS * 10=RHS* 10
.LHS /16.=.RHS /16.
Calculate quotient
To check that we have the correct solution, we can substitute m=0.8 into the original equation.
Since both sides are equal, we can conclude that m=0.8 is the correct solution.
