6x+1= (2x-1)(m+3)
multiple choice:
A) x= m+2 over 2m B) x= m+4 over 12+2m
C) x= 4-m over 2m D) x= m+4 over 2m
The multiple choice answers above are fractions. I will ONLY choose best answer for someone who shows all work and gets an answer above, thanks so much!

6x+1= (2x-1)(m+3)
6x+1 = 2xm -m +6x - 3
combine like terms
4 = 2xm - m
Isolate all terms with x on the same side
4 + m = 2xm
Divide both sides by 2m
(4+m)/2m = x
Answer D

6x + 1 = (2x-1)(m+3)
6x + 1 = 2mx + 6x - m - 3
6x - 6x - 2mx = - m - 3
-2mx = - m -3
Then we divide both sides by -2m
x = (-m-3)/(-2m)
x = -(m+3)/-(2m)
x= (m+3)/(2m)
I think all 4 answers are wrong.
