Question

What is the answer to 4(m+3)=18

Answer 1

M = 1.5

Explanation:

First, apply the distributive property to the problem. For this, you will multiply 4 x m, then 4 x 3.

Now, your problem looks like

4m + 12 = 18

Next, you need to get the variable isolated. For this, you need to subtract 12 from both sides.

Now, your problem looks like

4m = 6

Next, you can divide both sides by the non-constant term, which is 4m, so divide by 4.

Now, your problem looks like

M = 1.5
