Answer
m = 2
Work Step by Step
6m - 2 = 2m + 6
First, you need to get the variable (m) on one side of the equation, so subtract 2m from both sides of the equation. This will remove the m from the right side of the equation.
6m - 2 - 2m = 2m + 6 - 2m
Simplify to get this:
4m - 2 = 6
Add 2 to each side.
4m - 2 + 2 = 6 + 2
Simplify to get:
4m = 8
Divide each side by 4.
$\frac{4m}{4}$ = $\frac{8}{4}$
Simplify to m = 2
