Hey there!
2(x - 3) / y = 5
2(x - 3) / 5 = 5
2(x) + 2(-3) / 5 = 5
(2x - 6) 5 = 5
MULTPLY 5 to BOTH SIDES
(2x - 6)/5 * 5 = 5 * 5
SIMPLIFY IT!
2x - 6 = 5 * 5
2x - 6 = 25
ADD 6 to BOTH SIDES
2x - 6 + 6 = 25 + 6
SIMPLIFY IT!
2x = 25 + 6
2x = 31
DIVIDE 2 to BOTH SIDES
2x/2 = 31/2
SIMPLIFY IT!
x = 31/2
x = 15 1/2
Therefore, the answer should be:
x = 15 1/2
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Hello! Your answer was 19! There is no possible way for me to show you how to work this out using base ten blocks! Hopefully you can work it out in your head next time! :)
