You said solve for m, so the answer is simple:
K = 1/2 m v^2
2K = m v^2 (Times 2 on both sides)
m = 2k / v^2 (Divide by v^2 on both sides)

to solve an equation for one of the variables, do the same thing to both sides of the equation. To solve for m, first multiply both sides by 2:
2*K = 2*1/2m(v squared)
2K = m(v squared)
Then divide both sides by v squared
2K/(v squared) = m
Do the same thing to solve for v, except you will have to take a square root as then last step
sqrt (2K/m) = v

k = 1/2 (mv^2)
or 2k = mv^2
or mv^2=2k
or m = 2k/ (v^2)
and this is the answer
cheers

K = (1/2)mv^2
2K = mv^2
m = (2K)/(v^2)
K = (1/2)mv^2
2K = mv^2
(2K)/m = v^2
v = sqrt((2k)/m)
v = (sqrt(2km))/m

k = (mv^2) / 2
2k = mv^2
(2k) / v^2 = m (answer)
2k/m = v^2
sqrt(2k/m) = v (answer)
