    You need to isolate/get m by itself in the equation:

    3 (m + 7) = 6 (m + 2) Distribute 3 into (m + 7), and distribute 6 into (m + 2)

    (3) m + (3) 7 = (6) m + (6) 2

    3m + 21 = 6m + 12 Subtract 3m on both sides

    21 = 3m + 12 Subtract 12 on both sides

    9 = 3m Divide 3 on both sides

    3 = m

    PROOF

    3 (m + 7) = 6 (m + 2)

    3 (3 + 7) = 6 (3 + 2)

    3 (10) = 6 (5)

    30 = 30
