are the values of n and m? Explain,

The values are n = 45 and m = 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the values of m and n. We know that the value of n is 5 times as much as the value of m : n = 5 m. Also n is 36 more than the value of m : n = m + 36. This is a system of equations. Of we substitute n = 5 m into the second equation: 5 m = m + 36; 5 m - m = 36; 4 m = 36; m = 36 : 4; m = 9. Finally: n = 5 * 9 ; n = 45
