-5 + 8m = 2(-5.2 + m)
-5 + 8m = (-5.2 * 2 + m * 2)
-5 + 8m = (-10.4 + 2m)

Solving
-5 + 8m = -10.4 + 2m

Solving for variable 'm'.

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2m' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 8m + -2m = -10.4 + 2m + -2m

Combine like terms: 8m + -2m = 6m
-5 + 6m = -10.4 + 2m + -2m

Combine like terms: 2m + -2m = 0
-5 + 6m = -10.4 + 0
-5 + 6m = -10.4

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + 6m = -10.4 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + 6m = -10.4 + 5
6m = -10.4 + 5

Combine like terms: -10.4 + 5 = -5.4
6m = -5.4

Divide each side by '6'.
m = -0.9

Simplifying
m = -0.9
