Here is the equation:


(5)/(7) m = 15 \rightarrow (5)/(7) * m = 15

In this question, you are going to be multiplying. Switch it around. Remember that the sign changes!


(5)/(7)* m = 15 \rightarrow 15 / (5)/(7) = m

Divide to find m. When dividing, you have to multiply. You use: Keep, Change, Flip.

Keep 15, Change ÷ to ×, Flip 5/7 = 7/5. Your new equation is:


15 / (5)/(7) = (15)/(1) * (7)/(5)

Now multiply:


(15)/(1) * (7)/(5) = (105)/(5) = 21

m is equal to 21; m = 21

(5)/(7)m = 15

Multiply both sides by 7/5.


(7)/(5) * (5)/(7)m = (7)/(5) * 15


(35)/(35) m = (7 * 15)/(5)


(35)/(35) m = (7 * 3 * 5)/(5)


m = (7 * 3)/(1)


m = 21
