Solve for m 1-m=6-6m

$1 - m = 6 - 6 m$

Step 1

Move all terms containing $m$ to the left side of the equation.

Add $6 m$ to both sides of the equation.

$1 - m + 6 m = 6$

Add $- m$ and $6 m$ .

$1 + 5 m = 6$

Step 2

Move all terms not containing $m$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $1$ from both sides of the equation.

$5 m = 6 - 1$

Subtract $1$ from $6$ .

$5 m = 5$

Step 3

Divide each term in $5 m = 5$ by $5$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $5 m = 5$ by $5$ .

$\frac{5 m}{5} = \frac{5}{5}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $5$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{5 m}{5} = \frac{5}{5}$

Divide $m$ by $1$ .

$m = \frac{5}{5}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $5$ by $5$ .

$m = 1$
