can some explain to me the how a=cF a=k/m are combined to make f=Ma

bump. there are too many instances of these combinations in physics to ignore--I have to understand the reasoning behind it!

If a = constant x F
and a = constant / m
then you combine them to make
a = constant x F/m
and a = constant / m
then you combine them to make
a = constant x F/m

yeah that is the part that I don't understand... could you walk thst through step by step and perhaps give an example?
I'd really appreciate thst

OK lets see if I can break it down more
a = constant X F providing that M is constant
ie we apply different forces to the same mass
a = constant / m providing that F is constant
ie we apply the same force to different masses
when we combine them into
a = constant x F/m we can get both relationships in one
when m is constant, we get the first one (combining the constants)
when F is constant we get the second one
