    5/3x+5=1/3x-3

    move 1/3x to the other side

    sign changes from + 1/3x to - 1/3x

    5/3x-1/3x+5=1/3x-1/3x-3

    5/3x-1/3x+5=-3

    move + 5 to the other side

    sign changes from + 5 to - 5

    5/3x-1/3x+5-5=-3-5

    5/3x-1/3x=-8

    4/3x=-8

    Multiply both sides by 3/4

    4/3x (3/4) = -8 (3/4)

    Cross out - 8 and 4, divide by 4 and then becomes - 2*3=-6

    Answer: x=-6
