Question

Work out
8(m + 1) = 32
m=?

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8m + 8 = 32

Subtract 8

8m = 24

Divide by 8

m = 3

Answer 2

8 (m + 1) = 32

First, distribute.

8m + 8 = 32  

           -8       -8    ← subtract 8 on both sides

8m = 24

÷8        ÷8    ← divide by 8 on both sides

m = 3
