To find the value of \( m \), we can start with the equation:

\[ 12 + 7 + m = 30 \]

First, we can combine the numbers 12 and 7:

\[ 19 + m = 30 \]

Next, we isolate \( m \) by subtracting 19 from both sides:

\[ m = 30 - 19 \]

Calculating that gives us:

\[ m = 11 \]

So, the value of \( m \) is 11. You can put this value in the response area.
