Hi there! :) :D

Answer:

D. Division property of equality

m=5

*The answer must have a positive sign.*

Explanation:

Division property of equality

a/c=b/c

First, you divide by 5 from both sides of an equation.


(5m)/(5)=(25)/(5)

And then you divide by the numbers from left too right.


25/5=5

Final answer: →
m=5

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

:)
