Question

2m + 11 = 4m + 1
Find the solution for m in the equation.

Answer 1

2m + 11 = 4m + 1

2m (-2m) + 11 (+1) = 4m (+2m) + 1 (-1)

12 = 6m

12/6 = 6m/6

m = 2

hope this helps 

Answer 2

Answer: m = 5

2m + 11 = 4m + 1           Subtract 4m from both sides
-2m + 11 = 1                   Subtract 11 from both sides
-2m = -10                      Divide by -2 to both sides
m = 5                            Answer!
