Question

How to solve a equation like: 2m = -2/3

Answer 1

Answer:

$m = -\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2m = -\frac{2}{3}$

Divide both sides by 2 to get just m

$\frac{2m}{2} = \frac{-\frac{2}{3}}{2}$

You can't divide a fraction by a number so you do kcf (keep it, change it, flip it)

$m = -\frac{2}{3} x \frac{2}{1}$

$m = -\frac{4}{3}$
