Answer

m=1.85

Work Step by Step

We need to get the m alone, so we cancel out the addition by subtracting 2.3 on both sides. This leaves us with the equation 4m=7.4. We cancel out multiplication by using division, so we divide both sides of the equation by 4 to get that m=1.85. We plug 1.85 in for m and confirm that our answer is, indeed, correct.
