Question
Solve the following equations
$5(2 m-6)=12$

Answer

Given, $5(2 m-6)=12$
On dividing both sides by 5 , we get
$\frac{5(2 m-6)}{5}=\frac{12}{5} \Rightarrow 2 m-6=\frac{12}{5}$
Now, on adding 6 in the both sides, we get
$2 m-6+6=\frac{12}{5}+6 \Rightarrow 2 m=\frac{12}{5}+6$
$\Rightarrow 2 m=\frac{12+30}{5} \Rightarrow 2 m=\frac{42}{5}$
Again, dividing both sides by 2 , we get
$\frac{2 m}{2}=\frac{42}{5 \times 2}$
$\therefore m=\frac{21}{5}$,
which is the required solution.
