To solve the equation \( 5M - 7N = 155 \) for \( M \), follow these steps:
-
First, isolate the term with \( M \): \[ 5M = 155 + 7N \]
-
Next, divide both sides by 5 to solve for \( M \): \[ M = \frac{155 + 7N}{5} \]
This is the expression for \( M \). You can simplify \( M \) further if required, but it is typically left in this form unless you are given a specific value for \( N \).
So, the final answer is: \[ M = \frac{155 + 7N}{5} \]
