Question

Solve -52 = 4m for m

Answer 1

Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

Isolate the variable. Divide 4 from both sides

(-52)/4 = (4m)/4

m = -52/4

m = -13

-13 is your answer for m

hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer

$\boxed{m=-13}$

Solution

Divide 4 from both sides.

$\frac{-52}{4}=-13$

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

Therefore, the answer is m=-13.
