Question

What is 1 2/3m + 2 = 2 1/6? Solve for m and show your work please

Answer 1

Explanation:

1+2/3m+2=2+1/6

We move all terms to the left:

1+2/3m+2-(2+1/6)=0

Domain of the equation: 3m!=0

m!=0/3

m!=0

m∈R

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2/3m+1+2-(1/6+2)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2/3m+3-(1/6+2)=0

We get rid of parentheses

2/3m+3-2-1/6=0

We calculate fractions

There is no solution for this equation

Answer 2

Answer: m = 1/10

Explanation:

1 2/3m + 2 = 2 1/6

Firstly, subtract 2 from both sides to get m alone:

1 2/3m = 1/6

Now, to get m alone, divide both sides by 1 2/3:

m = 1/10

Hope this helps!
