Question 3 pick out the solution from the values given in the bracket next to each equation. Show that the other values do not satisfy the equation. (a) 5m = 60 (10, 5, 12, 15) 5m = 60 Putting m = 10 5 × 10 = 60 50 = 60 It is not true So, m = 10 is not solution Putting m = 5 5 × 5 = 60 25 = 60 It is not true So, m = 5 is not a solution Putting m = 12 5 × 12 = 60 60 = 60 It is true So, m = 12 is a solution Putting m = 5 5 × 5 = 60 75 = 60 It is not true So, m = 5 is not a solution
