Step 1: Find a common denominator

---The common denominator here is 24. So, we need to transform all of the fractions to have a denominator of 24.

1/24m - 16/24 = 18/24

Step 2: Solve

1/24m - 16/24 = 18/24

1/24m = 34/24

m = 34/24 x 24/1

m = 34

Hope this helps!

Answer:


{ \tt{ (1)/(24) m - (2)/(3) = (3)/(4) }} \\ \\ { \tt{ (1)/(24) m = (17)/(12) }} \\ m = 34
