6-m%2F6-8=0

Step 1. Multiply by 6 to both sides of the equation get rid of the denominator.

6%2A6-6%2Am%2F6-6%2A8=6%2A0

36-m-48=0



-12=m or m=-12

Step 3. To check solution, substitute m=-12 into original equation 6-m%2F6-8=0.

6-%28-12%29%2F6-8=0

6%2B2-8=0

0=0 which is a true statement

Step 4. Solution is m=-12

I hope the above steps were helpful.
