7(2m-1)-3-12m=6

1 answer

To solve this equation, first distribute the 7 to the terms inside the parentheses:

14m - 7 - 3 - 12m = 6

Combine like terms on the left side of the equation:

(14m - 12m) - 7 - 3 = 6

2m - 10 = 6

Add 10 to both sides of the equation:

2m - 10 + 10 = 6 + 10

2m = 16

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

2m/2 = 16/2

m = 8

Therefore, the solution to the equation is m = 8.
