1.%28-2m-2%29%2F%283%29%2B%282m-3%29%2F%286%29=%28m%29%2F%288%29

Multiply left and right sides by 24m, simplify, and solve for m.


2.%281%29%2F%28x%29-%282%29%2F%28x%2B1%29=%283%29%2F%286x%29

Multiply left and right sides by 6x(x+1), simplify, and solve for x.

The method is to identify simplest common denominator, and multiply the left and right sides by it, and this lets you clear the denominators. You then have a linear equation in one single variable to solve.
