First, we multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the fraciton:
5 (x-16) = 8x
distribute to get
5x-80=8x
subtract from both sides 5x
-80=3x
divide both sides by 3 to get
x = - 80/3 or around - 26.667

-16 = 8x/5 ... 8x/5 is the same as 8/5 (x)
-16 = (8/5) x ... divide both sides by 8/5
-16 / (8/5) = x
-16 * 5/8 = x
-80/8 = x
-10 = x <===
