    3 (1+2t) = 3t+5

    Use distributive property:

    3 + 6t = 3t + 5

    Subtract 3 from both sides:

    6t = 3t + 2

    Subtract 3t from both sides:

    3t = 2

    Divide both sides by 3:

    t = 2/3

    t = 2 / 3

    Explanation:

    3 (1 + 2t) = 3t + 5

    Simplify both sides of the equation

    3 (1 + 2t) = 3t + 5

    (3) (1) + (3) (2t) = 3t + 5 (Distribute)

    3 + 6t = 3t + 5

    6t + 3 = 3t + 5

    Subtract 3t from both sides

    6t + 3 - 3t = 3t + 5 - 3t

    3t + 3 = 5

    Subtract 3 from both sides

    3t + 3 - 3 = 5 - 3

    3t = 2

    Divide both sides by 3

    3t / 3 = 2 / 3

    t = 2 / 3
