In order to solve this equation, simply combine like terms.

Explanation:

Step 1: You must combine your like terms

#m - 3 <= - 16#

You will add 3 to both sides of your equation. You add three because your original number in the equation is negative and you must do the opposite.

#m (-3)/(+3) <= -16/(+3)#

Step 2: Your answer is...

#m <= -13#
