9m + 45-3=60 What does M equal.
M is a number 9m is nine times the number m.
So what does M equal. I'm trying to see if you are smart cause I know the amswer.
9m + 45-3=60
9m + 42 = 60
9m + 42 - 42 = 60 - 42
9m = 28
m = 18/9
m = 2
You can check it by substituting 2 for m in your original problem.
(9 * 2) + 45 - 3 = 60
18 + 42 = 60
Yep -- it's right!
YOU ARE RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S ARE YOU A TEACHER.
Both of us are teachers -- with many years of experience.
To solve for M in the given equation, we need to isolate the term that contains M on one side of the equation. Here's how we can do it step by step:
1. Start with the equation: 9m + 45 - 3 = 60.
2. Combine like terms: 9m + 42 = 60. (45 - 3 = 42)
3. Subtract 42 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with M: 9m = 60 - 42.
4. Simplify: 9m = 18.
5. Divide both sides of the equation by 9 to solve for M: m = 18 ÷ 9.
6. Calculate: m = 2.
Therefore, M equals 2.
