Simplify

- 7 m - 11 - 10 m

Subtract the terms

More Steps

Evaluate

- 7 m - 10 m

Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients

(- 7 - 10) m

Subtract the numbers

- 17 m

- 17 m - 11

- 17 m - 11 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 17 m = 0 + 11

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 17 m = 11

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

17 m = - 11

Divide both sides

\frac{17 m}{17} = \frac{- 11}{17}

Divide the numbers

m = \frac{- 11}{17}

Solution

m = - \frac{11}{17}

Alternative Form

m \approx - 0.647059
