Combine like terms.

We have #12.6+4m=9.6+8r#. Our goal is to solve for #m# and #r#, I am assuming. Let's combine all of the like terms:

#12.6+4m=9.6+8r#

#12.6-9.6+4m=8r#

#3.0+4m=8r#

Now, let's divide both sides by #4#.

#3.0+4m=8r#

#3/4+m=2r#

This is as far as we can go with the given information. If there is any additional information to go by, please leave a comment below.

I hope that helps!
