\frac{1}{5}x+3=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{1}{5}x=y-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
\frac{\frac{1}{5}x}{\frac{1}{5}}=\frac{y-3}{\frac{1}{5}}
Multiply both sides by 5.
x=\frac{y-3}{\frac{1}{5}}
Dividing by \frac{1}{5} undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{5}.
x=5y-15
Divide y-3 by \frac{1}{5} by multiplying y-3 by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{5}.
