Let's call his secret number 'M' (for mystery-number).
multiplied it by 5 . . . 5M
subtracted 16 from the result . . . 5M - 16
adds 10 to the number . . . M + 10
multiplies that result by 3 . . . 3(M+10)
Both processes produce the same results:
5M - 16 = 3 (M + 10)
Eliminate parentheses
on the right side: 5M - 16 = 3M + 30
Subtract 3M
from each side: 2M - 16 = 30
Add 16 to each side: 2M = 46
Divide each side by 2 : M = 23
