Look at your right hand; 5 Look at your left hand, close 3 fingers and divide what's left by 2.

2x+3 = 5 move 3 to the other side (it becomes minus) 2x = 5 - 3 2x = 2 divide both sides by 2 x = 1

Deduct 3 from both sides and then divide both sides by 2 So the solution is x = 1

Step One: Subtract 3 from both sides of the Equation. Leaving 2X = 2 Step Two: Divide Both sides of the Equation by 2. Leaving X=1

2x + 3 = 5 You take the three to the other side and change the sign and therefore you get 2x = 5 - 3 Therefore, 2x = 2 Hence, x = 2/2 = 1

An easier way to solve the equation is to subtract 3 from both sides, which produces 2x = 2. Dividing each side by 2 shows that x = 1.

What added to three would be 5? The answer is two. So what multiplied by 2 would be two? The answer is one.
