m \cdot 15 = 12 m - 72

Move

12 m

to the left side

3 m = - 72

Divide both sides by

3

m = - 24

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

m = 6

Combine undefined points with solutions:

m = - 24

\frac{1}{h + 6} (h + 6) = 1, h \neq = - 6

\frac{80000}{x} = 8808689

\frac{1}{2 x - 3} = \frac{3}{2 x + 4}

\frac{5 x + 1}{x + 4} = 4

94.5 \cdot \frac{1}{x} = 4
