Question

Please solve the equation (15m + 3)/2 = -6

Answer 1

Answer:

m = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{15m+3}{2}$ = - 6

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

15m + 3 = - 12 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

15m = - 15 ( divide both sides by 15 )

m = - 1

Answer 2

$\text{Solve:}\\\\\frac{15m+3}{2}=-6\\\\\text{Multiply both sides by 2}\\\\15m+3=-12\\\\\text{Subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\15m=-15\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 15}\\\\\boxed{m=-1}$
