Original equation: 2x + 3 = 11
Sutract 3 from each side,
2x + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3
But 2x + 3 - 3 = 2x, and 11 - 3 = 8
Therefore we now have 2x = 8
Divide both sides of the equation by 2,
2x / 2 = 8 / 4
But 2x / 2 = x and 8 / 2 = 4,
Therefore we now have x = 4 ....... and there's your answer.
I hope this helps.
