15m-12-12m=16

what's the answer

It's more helpful to learn how to solve equations than to just give you the answer.

Here's a similar equation...
7x - 4 - 9x = 14

We need to get all the x-terms on one side and all the non-x-terms on the other side.

The most important thing to remember is... "What you do to one side you must do to the other side."
7x - 4 - 9x = 14
+ 4 +4 (Add four to both sides.)
7x - 9x = 18 (Just ignore the x, and subtract 7 from 9.)
-2x = 18
(Divide by -2 to isolate the x.)
x = 18/-2
x = -9

thankyou

Glad to help. :)

To solve the equation 15m - 12 - 12m = 16, we need to simplify and isolate the variable "m".

Step 1: Combine like terms
15m - 12 - 12m can be simplified as 15m - 12m - 12 = 3m - 12

So the equation becomes 3m - 12 = 16.

Step 2: Add 12 to both sides of the equation to move the constant term to the other side.
3m - 12 + 12 = 16 + 12
3m = 28

Step 3: Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for "m".
3m/3 = 28/3
m = 28/3

The final answer is m = 28/3.
