m=28
Explanation:

Distribute
.05m +.6 =2
Subtract .6 from each side
.05m +.6-.6 = 2-.6
.05m = 1.4
Divide each side by .05
.05m/.05 = 1.4/.05

Answer:

m=28

Step-by-step explanation:

0.1(0.5m+6)=2

Distribute

.05m +.6 =2

Subtract .6 from each side

.05m +.6-.6 = 2-.6

.05m = 1.4

Divide each side by .05

.05m/.05 = 1.4/.05

m = 28
