\begin{gathered} \text{Equation:} \\ 6m-m=(5)/(6)(6m-10) \\ 5m=(5)/(6)(6m-10) \\ 5m=0.83\textcolor{#FF7968}{(6}m-10) \\ 5m=4.98m-8.3 \\ 5m-4.98m=-8.3 \\ 0.02m=-8.3 \\ m=-((8.3)/(0.02)) \\ m=415 \end{gathered}

1.To correctly solve the exercise, the fraction multiply the two values ​​that are in the parentheses.

2.the fraction divided by itself 5 divided by 6 gives 0.83

3.Now 0.83 multiply the two values that are in the parentheses.

4.Finally applying the law of signs for the division when passing 0.02 to dividing 8.3 also remained as negative but when applying the law of signs for the division, negative value that divides negative value the result is positive.
