Solve 4(5m-2)=43

$$4 ( 5 m - 2 ) = 43$$

Solve for m

$$m = \frac{51}{20} = 2\frac{11}{20} = 2.55$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 4.

$$5m-2=\frac{43}{4}$$

Add 2 to both sides.

$$5m=\frac{43}{4}+2$$

Convert 2 to fraction \frac{8}{4}.

$$5m=\frac{43}{4}+\frac{8}{4}$$

Since \frac{43}{4} and \frac{8}{4} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$5m=\frac{43+8}{4}$$

Add 43 and 8 to get 51.

$$5m=\frac{51}{4}$$

Divide both sides by 5.

$$m=\frac{\frac{51}{4}}{5}$$

Express \frac{\frac{51}{4}}{5} as a single fraction.

$$m=\frac{51}{4\times 5}$$

Multiply 4 and 5 to get 20.

$$m=\frac{51}{20}$$
