m/4+6=2
Subtract 6 from both sides
m/4=2-6
m/4=-4
Multiply both sides by 4 to eliminate the fraction
(4)(m/4)=(-4)(4)
The 4s on the left side cancel each other
m= -16

Check:
Substitute x= -16 into equation
m/4+6=2
-16/4+6=2
-4+6=2
2=2

Hope this helps! :)

m/4+6=2

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
m/4+6=2

Simplifying:
+ 0.25m+6=2

We move all terms containing m to the left and all other terms to the right.
+ 0.25m=+2-6

We simplify left and right side of the equation.
+ 0.25m=-4

We divide both sides of the equation by 0.25 to get m.
m=-16 Hope this helps good luck.....
