By arranging the equation

First get rid of the paranthesis:

$- 151 - 21 m = 34 m + 1224$ $-151 - 21m = 34 m + 1224$

Collect numbers on right hand side and others on the other side:

$- 21 m - 34 m = 1224 + 151$ $-21 m - 34 m = 1224+151$

$- 55 m = 1375$ $-55 m = 1375$

$m = - \frac{1375}{55} = - 25$ $m = -1375/55 = -25$

Your answer is

$m = - 25$ $m=-25$

How do you solve −151−21m=34(m+36)-151- 21m = 34( m + 36)?
