nm=ma
Multiply both sides of the equation by m.
ma=nm
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
ma=mn
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{ma}{m}=\frac{mn}{m}
Divide both sides by m.
a=\frac{mn}{m}
Dividing by m undoes the multiplication by m.
a=n
Divide nm by m.
nm=ma
Variable m cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by m.
nm-ma=0
Subtract ma from both sides.
\left(n-a\right)m=0
Combine all terms containing m.
m=0
Divide 0 by n-a.
m\in \emptyset
Variable m cannot be equal to 0.
