In order to solve x, you must isolate it to one side. Let's isolate it to the left side.

First, subtract 3 from both sides.
Results in: 5x = 10

Now in order to get rid of the 5, divide it form both sides.
Results in: x = 10/5

Simplify.

x = 2

Hope that helps

5x + 3 = 13

Subtract 3 from both sides.

5x = 13 - 3

Simplify.

5x = 10

Divide both sides by 5.

x = 10/5

x = 2
