Solve 2/3m=8/9

$$\frac { 2 } { 3 } m = \frac { 8 } { 9 }$$

Solve for m

$$m = \frac{4}{3} = 1\frac{1}{3} \approx 1.333333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by \frac{3}{2}, the reciprocal of \frac{2}{3}.

$$m=\frac{8}{9}\times \frac{3}{2}$$

Multiply \frac{8}{9} times \frac{3}{2} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$m=\frac{8\times 3}{9\times 2}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{8\times 3}{9\times 2}.

$$m=\frac{24}{18}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{24}{18} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 6.

$$m=\frac{4}{3}$$
