Question: 5m(2m-1)-3m
1. **State the problem:** Simplify $5m(2m-1)-3m$. 2. **Use the distributive property:** $$5m(2m-1)=5m\cdot 2m+5m\cdot(-1)$$ $$=10m^2-5m$$ 3. **Substitute back into the expression:** $$10m^2-5m-3m$$ 4. **Combine like terms:** $$-5m-3m=-8m$$ So the expression becomes $$10m^2-8m$$ 5. **Final answer:** $$10m^2-8m$$
