Question

3m=5m-8/5 how to solve it and and check it.......?

Answer 1

3m-5m=-8/5
-2m=-8/5
m=-8/5*-1/2
m=4/5
Check:
3*4/5-5*4/5=-8/5

12/5-20/5=-8/5
-8/5=-8/5
Verified

Answer 2

Solution :

3m = 5m - $\sf \frac {8}{5}$

$\sf 3m - 5m = - \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \sf \cancel - \: 2m = \cancel{ - } \: \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \sf 2m = \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \sf 2m \times 5 = 8 \\ \\ \sf 10m = 8 \\ \\ \sf m = \frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}$

Hence, the value of m is 4 / 5.

CHECK YOUR SOLUTION ;

Putting the value of m = 4 / 5,

$\sf 3m = 5m - \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \sf 3 \times \frac{4}{5} = 5 \times \frac{4}{5} - \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \sf \frac{12}{5} = 4 - \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \sf \frac{12}{5} = \frac{12}{5}$

Hence, the value of m is 4 / 5.
