Question

what does m equal 2+2m=6

Answer 1

  2 + 2m = 6
-2             -2
       2m = 4    (divide each side by 2)
       m = 4/2
        m = 2

Answer 2

2 + 2m = 6 equals m = 2.

First, subtract 2 from both sides. Your problem should look like: 2m = 6 - 2.
Second, simplify 6 - 2 to get 4. Your problem should look like: 2m = 4.
Third, divide both sides by 2. Your problem should look like: m = $\frac{4}{2}$
Fourth, simplify $\frac{4}{2}$ to 2. Your problem should look like: m = 2, which is the answer.
