\frac{m}{49}+\frac{100-98m}{9}=10
Multiply both sides of the equation by 100.
\frac{9m}{441}+\frac{49\left(100-98m\right)}{441}=10
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 49 and 9 is 441. Multiply \frac{m}{49} times \frac{9}{9}. Multiply \frac{100-98m}{9} times \frac{49}{49}.
\frac{9m+49\left(100-98m\right)}{441}=10
Since \frac{9m}{441} and \frac{49\left(100-98m\right)}{441} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{9m+4900-4802m}{441}=10
Do the multiplications in 9m+49\left(100-98m\right).
\frac{-4793m+4900}{441}=10
Combine like terms in 9m+4900-4802m.
-\frac{4793}{441}m+\frac{100}{9}=10
Divide each term of -4793m+4900 by 441 to get -\frac{4793}{441}m+\frac{100}{9}.
-\frac{4793}{441}m=10-\frac{100}{9}
Subtract \frac{100}{9} from both sides.
-\frac{4793}{441}m=\frac{90}{9}-\frac{100}{9}
Convert 10 to fraction \frac{90}{9}.
-\frac{4793}{441}m=\frac{90-100}{9}
Since \frac{90}{9} and \frac{100}{9} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
-\frac{4793}{441}m=-\frac{10}{9}
Subtract 100 from 90 to get -10.
m=-\frac{10}{9}\left(-\frac{441}{4793}\right)
Multiply both sides by -\frac{441}{4793}, the reciprocal of -\frac{4793}{441}.
m=\frac{-10\left(-441\right)}{9\times 4793}
Multiply -\frac{10}{9} times -\frac{441}{4793} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
m=\frac{4410}{43137}
Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{-10\left(-441\right)}{9\times 4793}.
m=\frac{490}{4793}
Reduce the fraction \frac{4410}{43137} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 9.
