Question

Can someone show me the steps?
10m - 2/5 = 9 3/5

Answer 1

m = 1

Explanation:

10m - 2/5 = 9 3/5

10m = 9 3/5 + 2/5

10m = 9 + 5/5

10m = 9 + 1 = 10

10m = 10

m = 1

Answer 2

10m + -0.4 = 9.6
-0.4 + 10m = 9.6
-0.4 + 10m = 9.6
Solving for 'm'Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
-0.4 + 0.4 + 10m = 9.6 + 0.4
Combine like terms: -0.4 + 0.4 = 0.00.0 + 10m = 9.6 + 0.410m = 9.6 + 0.4
Combine like terms: 9.6 + 0.4 = 1010m = 10
Divide each side by '10'.m = 1
