Solution for 4(m-2)-(m+3)=m-1 equation:


Simplifying
4(m + -2) + -1(m + 3) = m + -1

Reorder the terms:
4(-2 + m) + -1(m + 3) = m + -1
(-2 * 4 + m * 4) + -1(m + 3) = m + -1
(-8 + 4m) + -1(m + 3) = m + -1

Reorder the terms:
-8 + 4m + -1(3 + m) = m + -1
-8 + 4m + (3 * -1 + m * -1) = m + -1
-8 + 4m + (-3 + -1m) = m + -1

Reorder the terms:
-8 + -3 + 4m + -1m = m + -1
