3\times 1.6=2m
Variable m cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3m, the least common multiple of m,3.
4.8=2m
Multiply 3 and 1.6 to get 4.8.
2m=4.8
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
m=\frac{4.8}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
m=\frac{48}{20}
Expand \frac{4.8}{2} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
m=\frac{12}{5}
Reduce the fraction \frac{48}{20} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
