Answer:
(7/3)
Explanation:
3 4/7 m =8 1/3
I'll assume m is a variable, not meters. I'll add parentheses to clarify:
(3 4/7)*m =8 1/3
Lets start by converting the mixed numbers into fractions with the same denominators:
3 4/7 = (21/7) + (4/7) = (25/7) [convert 3 into (21/7) and then add (4/7)]
8 1/3 = (24/3) + (1/3) = (25/3) [convert 8 into (24/3) and then add (1/3)]
Now we can write: (25/7)*m = (25/3)
(25/7)*m = (25/3)
(7/25)*(25/7)*m = (7/25)*(25/3) [Multiply both sides by (7/25)]
Since (7/25)*(25/7) = 1, and
(7/25)*(25/3) = (7/3)
We get 1m = (7/3)
m is (7/3)
