Sole m-2/12=1/6<br> a.4<br> b.1<br> c.0<br> d.2
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The answer would be A. 4
Here’s what I would do.
Multiply both sides by 12 so u can get m- 2 by itself.
m-2= 2
How’d I get the two? It comes from when I multiplied 12 on both sides. 12/6= 2
Now ur equation should be
m-2=2
Do the opposite and add two to both sides to get the variable by itself.
m=4

Hope this helps :)))
