Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

D = mv

D = 5.1

v = 0.3

Step 2: Solve for m

1. Substitute in variables:                                                                                     5.1 = 0.3m
2. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 0.3 on both sides:                              17 = m
3. Rewrite:                                                                                                             m = 17
