Answer:

Alright

Ignore the 20, We have 5(x-2)
Brackets mean Multiplication

So, Multiply 5 with x and multiply 5 with 2

=> 20 = 5x - 10

Transpose the 20 to the other side

the twenty being transposed to the other side becomes Minus because it is in plus

And bring 5x in front of the =

=> 5x = 20 - 10
=> 5x = 10

So now we have 5x but we need x so transpose the 5 to the other side

by transposing the five becomes division because its in positive so

=> x = 10 ÷ 5

=> x = 2

Kaboom, All done!
