Question

solve for m.
14m = 308
m =
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Divide both sides by 14

To solve for \( m \) in the equation \( 14m = 308 \), we divide both sides of the equation by 14. This is because we want to isolate \( m \), and since \( m \) is multiplied by 14, dividing by 14 will undo that operation. So we have:
\[
\frac{14m}{14}=\frac{308}{14}
\]

Step2: Simplify both sides

Simplifying the left side, \( \frac{14m}{14} \) simplifies to \( m \). For the right side, we calculate \( \frac{308}{14} \). Let's do that division: 14 times 22 is 308 (because \( 14\times20 = 280 \) and \( 14\times2=28 \), and \( 280 + 28=308 \)), so \( \frac{308}{14}=22 \).

Answer:

\( m = 22 \)
