k+5=\frac{5}{3}\times 7
Multiply both sides by 7.
k+5=\frac{5\times 7}{3}
Express \frac{5}{3}\times 7 as a single fraction.
k+5=\frac{35}{3}
Multiply 5 and 7 to get 35.
k=\frac{35}{3}-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
k=\frac{35}{3}-\frac{15}{3}
Convert 5 to fraction \frac{15}{3}.
k=\frac{35-15}{3}
Since \frac{35}{3} and \frac{15}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
k=\frac{20}{3}
Subtract 15 from 35 to get 20.
