Question 898016
That only shows one fraction, the singular not plural; which is the left member of the equation.


The equation given,  {{{-323/72=m-118}}}


ADD 118 to both sides:   {{{-323/72+118=m}}}


Now just simplify.
{{{m=118-323/72}}}, combining Symmetric Property of Equality and Commutative Property of Addition in one step;
323=17*9 so no simplification for the fraction, but the right member may and should be operated.


{{{118(72/72)-323/72}}}


{{{8496/72-323/72}}}


{{{(8496-323)/72}}}


{{{highlight(m=8173/72)}}}, no factors in common for reducing.


{{{highlight(m=113&37/72)}}}
