Answer 2

Correct Question: Adding 1 to one-third of m is 5. Find the value of m.

Answer:

The value of $m$ is $12$ when adding 1 to one-third of m is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one-third of $m$ can be written as $\frac{1}{3} \cdot m$, i.e.,

$\frac{m}{3}$

Adding the number $1$ to it gives,

$1+\frac{m}{3}$

According to the question, adding 1 to one-third of m is 5.

⇒ $1+\frac{m}{3}=5$

Subtracting $1$ from both the side from the expression as follows:.

⇒ $1+\frac{m}{3}-1=5-1$

⇒ $\frac{m}{3}=4$

Multiply the expression by $3$ as follows:

⇒ $3(\frac{m}{3})=3(4)$

⇒ $m=12$

Therefore, the value of $m$ is $12$.
