m=3k-3l
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by k-l.
3k-3l=m
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
3k=m+3l
Add 3l to both sides.
\frac{3k}{3}=\frac{m+3l}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
k=\frac{m+3l}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
k=\frac{m}{3}+l
Divide m+3l by 3.
m=3k-3l
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by k-l.
3k-3l=m
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-3l=m-3k
Subtract 3k from both sides.
\frac{-3l}{-3}=\frac{m-3k}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
l=\frac{m-3k}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
l=-\frac{m}{3}+k
Divide m-3k by -3.
