If you mean: x/3 -1 = 5 then x = 18
you mean: x+3x+3=x+18 so x=5
18 = 3 x 6 (six).
2 over 3 = 18 over x+5... x=22 because (x+5) needs to equal 27 for the equation to be true.
x/3 + 5 = 11 Subtract 5 from both sides: x/3 = 6 Multiply both sides by 3: x = 18

Your question is actually: "What is 'x' if [18 = 3 + 5x] ?"18 = 3 + 5xSubtract 3 from each side of the equation:15 = 5xDivide each side by 5:3 = x
If you simplify this equation, then you get -3x=18. Divide both sides by -3 and you get x=-6.
5x + 3 = 18 Subtract 3 from both sides: 5x = 15 Divide by 5: x = 3.
x - 13 = 5 x = 18
y = 6 x 3.5; If you can't do that in your head, split it up: 6 x 3 = 18, 6 x .5 = 3, 18 + 3 = 21
1 x 18 = 2 x 9 = 3 x 6 = 18
3x=18 x=18/3 x=6
