\huge\textbf{Hey there!}


\large\textsf{25(m + 1) = 1,000}\\\\\huge\textsf{DISTRIBUTE 25 WITHIN PARENTHESES}\\\\\large\textsf{25(m) + 25(1) = 1,000}\\\large\textsf{25m + 25 = 1,000}\\\\\huge\textsf{SUBTRACT 5 to BOTH SIDES}\\\large\textsf{25m + 25 - 25 = 1,000 - 25}\\\\\large\text{CANCEL out: 25 - 25 because it give you 1}\\\large\text{KEEP: 1,000 - 25 because it help solve for the m-value}\\\large\text{NEW EQUATION: 25m = 1,000 - 25}\\\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}\\\\\large\textsf{25m = 975}\\\\\huge\textsf{DIVIDE 25 to BOTH SIDES}


\mathsf{(25m)/(25) = (975)/(25)}\\\\\large\text{CANCEL out: }\rm{(25)/(25)}\large\text{ because it give you 1}\\\large\text{KEEP: }\rm{(975)/(25)}\large\text{ because it give you the answer of the m-value.}\\\\\large\text{NEW EQUATION: m = }\rm{(975)/(25)}\\\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}\\\\\mathsf{m = 39}\\\\\huge\text{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{m = 39}}}\huge\checkmark


\huge\textbf{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy}\\\huge\textbf{your day!}
