n^{2}=3\left(m+1\right)
Variable m cannot be equal to -1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by m+1.
n^{2}=3m+3
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by m+1.
3m+3=n^{2}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
3m=n^{2}-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
\frac{3m}{3}=\frac{n^{2}-3}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
m=\frac{n^{2}-3}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
m=\frac{n^{2}}{3}-1
Divide n^{2}-3 by 3.
m=\frac{n^{2}}{3}-1\text{, }m\neq -1
Variable m cannot be equal to -1.
