Answer:

0 = 6

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(m−1)=5m+3−2m

(3)(m)+(3)(−1)=5m+3+−2m (Distribute)

3m+−3=5m+3+−2m

3m−3=(5m+−2m)+(3) (Combine Like Terms)

3m−3=3m+3

3m−3=3m+3

Step 2: Subtract 3m from both sides.

3m−3−3m=3m+3−3m

−3=3

Step 3: Add 3 to both sides.

−3+3=3+3

0=6
