m = -64
m = -64

m = -1
m = -1

m = -128
m = -128

m = -2

Answer 1

To solve for \( m \) in the equation

\[ \frac{m}{8} - 4 = -12, \]

follow these steps:

1. Add 4 to both sides:

\[ \frac{m}{8} = -12 + 4 \]

\[ \frac{m}{8} = -8. \]

2. Multiply both sides by 8 to isolate \( m \):

\[ m = -8 \times 8 \]

\[ m = -64. \]

So the solution is

\[ \boxed{-64}. \]

The correct response is \( m = -64 \).
