Question

One-half m minus three-fourths n equals 16, when n equals 8?

Answer 1

The value of m is 44.

Explanation:

Given : Expression one-half m minus three-fourths n equals 16.

To find : The value of m, when n equals 8?

Solution :

Write the expression in number form,

'one-half m minus three-fourths n equals 16'

i.e.
`(1)/(2)m-(3)/(4) n=16`

Substitute n=8,

`(1)/(2)m-(3)/(4)* 8=16`

`(1)/(2)m-3* 2=16`

`(1)/(2)m-6=16`

`(1)/(2)m=16+6`

`(1)/(2)m=22`

`m=22* 2`

`m=44`

Therefore, The value of m is 44.

Answer 2

Hey!

------------------------------------------------

Expression:

0.5m - 0.75n = 16 (1/2m - 3/4n = 16)

------------------------------------------------

Solution:

0.5m - 0.75n = 16

0.5m - 0.75(8) = 16

0.5m - 6 = 16

0.5m - 6 + 6 = 16 + 6

0.5m = 22

0.5m/0.5 = 22/0.5

m = 44

------------------------------------------------

Answer:

`\boxed{ \bf m~=~44}`
