Question

M + 1 = 8 But what’s the m=__

Answer 1

Answer:m= 7.

Step-by-step explanation: first you do 8-1. 8-1 gives you 7. Therefore m=7

Answer 2

Answer: m = 7

Explanation: When you're asked to solve for m in an equation, what you're really being asked to do is to get m by itself on one side of the equation.

In this problem, since 1 is being added to m, in order to get m

by itself, we must subtract 1 from the left side of the equation.

If we subtract 1 from the left side of the equation, remember that

we must also subtract 1 from the right side of the equation.

So on the left, +1 and -1 cancel each other out

and on the right, 8 - 1 simplifies to 7.

So m = 7.
