Step 1.1

Add

5 a

$5 a$ to both sides of the equation.

a + 5 + 5 a = 5

$a + 5 + 5 a = 5$

Step 1.2

Add

a

$a$ and

5 a

$5 a$ .

6 a + 5 = 5

$6 a + 5 = 5$

6 a + 5 = 5

$6 a + 5 = 5$

Step 2

Move all terms not containing

a

$a$ to the right side of the equation.

Step 2.1

Subtract

5

$5$ from both sides of the equation.

6 a = 5 - 5

$6 a = 5 - 5$

Step 2.2

Subtract

5

$5$ from

5

$5$ .

6 a = 0

$6 a = 0$

6 a = 0

$6 a = 0$

Step 3

Divide each term in

6 a = 0

$6 a = 0$ by

6

$6$ and simplify.

Step 3.1

Divide each term in

6 a = 0

$6 a = 0$ by

6

$6$ .

\frac{6 a}{6} = \frac{0}{6}

$\frac{6 a}{6} = \frac{0}{6}$

Step 3.2.1.1

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{6 a}{6} = \frac{0}{6}$

Step 3.2.1.2

Divide

$a$ by

$1$ .

$a = \frac{0}{6}$

$a = \frac{0}{6}$

$a = \frac{0}{6}$
