Solve the equation for m.

5m - 7 = 3
m=

1 answer

To solve the equation \(5m - 7 = 3\), you can follow these steps:

  1. Add 7 to both sides of the equation: \[ 5m - 7 + 7 = 3 + 7 \] This simplifies to: \[ 5m = 10 \]

  2. Now, divide both sides by 5: \[ m = \frac{10}{5} \] Simplifying this gives: \[ m = 2 \]

So the solution is: \[ m = 2 \]
