3x+5y=z
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
3x=z-5y
Subtract 5y from both sides.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{z-5y}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{z-5y}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
3x+5y=z
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5y=z-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides.
\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{z-3x}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=\frac{z-3x}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
