3m-n=2m+n
add n to both sides and subtract 2m from both sides
3m-2m-n+n=2m-2m+n+n
m=2n

3m-n=2m%2Bn Start with the given equation.


3m=2m%2Bn%2Bn Add n to both sides.


3m-2m=n%2Bn Subtract 2m from both sides.


m=n%2Bn Combine like terms on the left side.


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