Answer

$m=8$.

Work Step by Step

The given equation is $\Rightarrow 2m-3=13$ Add $3$ to both sides. $\Rightarrow 2m-3+3=13+3$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow 2m=16$ Divide both sides by $2$. $\Rightarrow \frac{2m}{2}=\frac{16}{2}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow m=8$. Check:- $\Rightarrow 2(8)-3=13$ $\Rightarrow 16-3=13$ $\Rightarrow 13=13$ True. Hence, the solution is $m=8$.
