Question

Solve the equation. Check your solution.

$\frac{m}{4}+50=51$

Answer 1

Step 1 : Solve the equation

We have,

$$\begin{gathered} \frac{m}{4}+50=51 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{m}{4}=51-50 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{m}{4}=1 \\ \therefore m=4 \end{gathered}$$

Step 2 : Check the solution

Put the value of $m$ in the given equation

$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow \frac{4}{4}+50=51 \\ \Rightarrow 1+50=51 \\ \Rightarrow 51=51 \\ \therefore LHS=RHS \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the value of $m$ is $4$.
