m%2F9-7%2F18=1 Start with the given equation.


18%28m%2Fcross%289%29-7%2Fcross%2818%29%29=18%281%29 Multiply both sides by the LCD 18 to clear any fractions.


2m-7=18 Distribute and multiply.


2m=18%2B7 Add 7 to both sides.


2m=25 Combine like terms on the right side.


m=%2825%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate m.
