10-m=8\left(3m+5\right)
Add 6 and 4 to get 10.
10-m=24m+40
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by 3m+5.
10-m-24m=40
Subtract 24m from both sides.
10-25m=40
Combine -m and -24m to get -25m.
-25m=40-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
-25m=30
Subtract 10 from 40 to get 30.
m=\frac{30}{-25}
Divide both sides by -25.
m=-\frac{6}{5}
Reduce the fraction \frac{30}{-25} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.
