Question

What is the value of m in the equation 1/2 m - 3/4 n = 16, when n = 8 ?

20
32
44
48

Answer 1

The answer is C 44

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is 3. The value of m is 44.

Explanation:

The given expression is

`(1)/(2)m-(3)/(4)n=16`

Substitute n=8 in the above expression.

`(1)/(2)m-(3)/(4)(8)=16`

`(1)/(2)m-3* 2=16`

`(1)/(2)m-6=16`

`(1)/(2)m=16+6`

`(1)/(2)m=22`

`m=44`

Therefore the value of m is 44 and option 3 is correct.
