Answer :
Answer:
m = 2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides of the equation by the inverse of the coefficient of m. That coefficient is 1/7, so its inverse is 7/1 = 7. Then you have ...
7·2/5 = 7·m/7
14/5 = m . . . . . . . . simplify
m = 2 4/5 = 2.8 . . express the number in a manner that makes sense to you
Answer:
2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
[tex]\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{m}{7}[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 7 to isolate m
[tex]\dfrac{2}{5}\times7=\dfrac{m}{7}\times7[/tex]
You'll be left with:
[tex]\dfrac{2}{5}\times7=m[/tex]
Then simply do the operations to get the value of m:
[tex]\dfrac{2}{5}\times7=m[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{2\times7}{5}=m[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{14}{5}=m[/tex]
2.8 = m
