Answer:

m = 20

Explanation:

We have two fractions and are asked to find m.

When we have a question like this, cross multiplying is our key, to find m, we need to first find the value of the denominator of the other fraction and the numerator of the same fraction m is in.

Therefore :


(8)/(m) = (6)/(15)


(8*15)/(m*6)

What is 8 * 15?

120.

Now we need to find what times 6 equals 120 to get m.

Divide 120 by 6

20

Therefore, m is equal to 20
