Solution Steps

To solve the equation \(7 - 14m = 2m - 5\), we need to isolate the variable \(m\). This involves moving all terms containing \(m\) to one side of the equation and constant terms to the other side. Then, we can solve for \(m\) by simplifying the equation.

Starting with the equation: \[ 7 - 14m = 2m - 5 \] we move all terms containing \( m \) to one side by adding \( 14m \) to both sides: \[ 7 = 16m - 5 \]

Next, we move the constant term on the right side to the left side by adding 5 to both sides: \[ 7 + 5 = 16m \] which simplifies to: \[ 12 = 16m \]

To isolate \( m \), we divide both sides by 16: \[ m = \frac{12}{16} = \frac{3}{4} \]
