So what you want to do is make it so all the X's are on one side, and all the numbers on the other.

Basically, making it so like terms are on the same sides.

So basically:

x+3+2x=x+3

What you can first do is:

x + 2x + 3 = x + 3

3x + 3 = x + 3

And then you could:

3x + 3 - 3 = x + 3 - 3

3x = 0

/3 /3

x = 0
