Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we have to get x by itself.

First, move all the constants to the same side, and the variables to the other. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the the equation.

6x-5=2x-3

First, subtract 2x from both sides

6x-2x-5=2x-2x-3

4x-5= -3

Next, add 5 to both sides.

4x-5+5= -3+5

4x=2

Now, the constants are on one side, with the variables on the other. x is not by itself though, it is being multiplied  by 4. So, divide both sides by 4.

4x/4=2/4

x=2/4

x=1/2
