Question

(PLEASE HELP) Solve 10 =
5m/4

Answer 1

Ok so I don't know if it is (5m)/4 or 5(m/4) so I'll solve both

If it's (5m)/4 :

(5m)/4 = 10
5m = 10 x 4 = 40
m = 40/5 = 8

If it's 5(m/4)

5(m/4) = 10
m/4 = 10/5 = 2

m = 2 x 4 = 8

(same answers but different solutions so might as well)

Answer 2

`m=8`

Explanation:

Given the following question:


`10=(5m)/(4)`

In order to find the answer, we have to remember when we have a two-step equation like this to multiply on both sides, and then divide both sides to isolate the variable.


`10=(5m)/(4)`

`4*10=40`

`40=5m`

`5m=40`

`5m/5=m`

`40/5=8`

`m=8`

Hope this helps.
