Question

Solve the equation.
-3.3m = -1.1
m =
Solve for n! Thank you!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

$m=1/3=0.\bar3$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$-3.3m=-1.1$

To solve for m, let's divide both sides by -3.3. So:

$\frac{-3.3m}{-3.3}=\frac{-1.1}{-3.3}$

On the left, the -3.3s cancel. On the right, cancel the negatives. So:

$m=\frac{1.1}{3.3}$

On the right, multiply both layers by 10 to get rid of the decimals. So:

$m=\frac{1.1}{3.3}\cdot(\frac{10}{10})$

Multiply:

$m=\frac{11}{33}$

Now, we can reduce. Divide both layers by 11. So:

$m=\frac{11/11}{33/11}$

Simplify:

$m=1/3=0.\bar3$

And we're done!
