Given the equation:


516m\text{ + }(15)/(21)\text{ = 22,803}

Let's simplify the equation to find m.


516m\text{ + }(15)/(21)\text{ = 22,803}
516m\text{ + }(15)/(21)-(15)/(21)\text{ = 22,803 - }(15)/(21)
516m\text{ = }\frac{(\text{22,803)}(21)}{21}-(15)/(21)
516m\text{ = }\frac{478,863\text{ - 15}}{21}
516m\text{ = }(478,848)/(21)\text{ = }((478,848)/(3))/((21)/(3))\text{ = }(159,616)/(7)
(516m)/(516)\text{ = }(159,616)/((7)(516))\text{ = }(159,616)/(3,612)
\text{ m =}((159,616)/(172))/((3,612)/(172))=(928)/(21)
\text{ m }=(928)/(21)\text{ or 44.19}

Therefore, m = 928/21 or 44.19
