Answer:

m=8

Explanation:

11-m=51-6m

You put the like terms together first so it will be:

6m-m=51-11

because when the numbers cross the '=' sign the signs change so -6 becomes +6m which is the same as 6m then +11 becomes -11. Then you solve:

=6m-m=51-11

=5m=40

Divide each side by 5 so that you can be left with the value of m

=5m÷5=40÷5

=m=8
