Solve for m (2m)/4-8=2

$\frac{2 m}{4} - 8 = 2$

Cancel the common factor of $2$ and $4$ .

Factor $2$ out of $2 m$ .

$\frac{2 (m)}{4} - 8 = 2$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $4$ .

$\frac{2 m}{2 \cdot 2} - 8 = 2$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 m}{2 \cdot 2} - 8 = 2$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{m}{2} - 8 = 2$

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

Add $8$ to both sides of the equation.

$\frac{m}{2} = 2 + 8$

Add $2$ and $8$ .

$\frac{m}{2} = 10$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $2$ .

$2 \frac{m}{2} = 2 \cdot 10$

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$2 \frac{m}{2} = 2 \cdot 10$

Rewrite the expression.

$m = 2 \cdot 10$

Simplify the right side.

Multiply $2$ by $10$ .

$m = 20$
