This is a very interesting equation.

Remember: The "solution" to the equation is the number that ' k ' must be
in order to make the equation a true statement.

-3k = -5k

Divide each side of the equation by ' k ' .
Then you have
-3 = -5 .

Is there ANY value for ' k ' that can make that a true statement ?

I don't think so.

This equation has NO solution.
