m over 8 minus 5 equal 12​

Answer :

Answer:

m = 136

Step-by-step explanation:

m/8 - 5 = 12

1. Add 5 on both sides

m/8 - 5 + 5 = 12 + 5

m/8 = 17

Multiply 8 on both sides since u are trying to isolate the variable

m/8 * 8 = 17*8

m = 136

Check

136/8 - 5 = 12

17 - 5 = 12

12 = 12

Hope it helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex] - 5 = 12 : Original Problem

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex] -5 +5 = 12 + 5 : Bringing the constants to one side

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex] = 17 : Simplification

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex]×8 = 17×8: Isolating the variable

m = 136 : The answer!!!

Checking the answer

[tex]\frac{136}{8}[/tex] -5 = 12 : Substitution

[tex]\frac{136}{8}[/tex] = 17 : Bringing constants to one side and simplification

136 = 17 × 8 : Isolating the answer

136 = 136 : Success!!!

I hope this is what you wanted and I hope this helps!!!
