5x-300=y-220
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5x=y-220+300
Add 300 to both sides.
5x=y+80
Add -220 and 300 to get 80.
\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{y+80}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=\frac{y+80}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
x=\frac{y}{5}+16
Divide y+80 by 5.
