3L=46m
Combine 50m and -4m to get 46m.
\frac{3L}{3}=\frac{46m}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
L=\frac{46m}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
3L+4m-50m=0
Subtract 50m from both sides.
3L-46m=0
Combine 4m and -50m to get -46m.
-46m=-3L
Subtract 3L from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-46m}{-46}=-\frac{3L}{-46}
Divide both sides by -46.
m=-\frac{3L}{-46}
Dividing by -46 undoes the multiplication by -46.
m=\frac{3L}{46}
Divide -3L by -46.
