How do you work out 5x + 5 = 2x + 11 in steps with a lot of detail?

First we have to get the variables on one side and the numbers on the other

5x+5=2x+11

-5 - 5

5x=2x+6

-2x - 2x

3x=6

now that we have that we can solve for x

since divition undos multiplication we can divide

3x=6

- - - -

3 3

x=2 is our final answer
