Solution

Solve the equation


9m+12=15

Step 1: Subtract 12 from both side


\begin{gathered} 9m+12=15 \\ 9m+12-12=15-12 \\ 9m=3 \end{gathered}

Step 2: Divide both side by 9


\begin{gathered} 9m=3 \\ m=(3)/(9) \\ m=(1)/(3) \end{gathered}

Hence the solution for m = 1/3

Therefore the correct answer is Option B
