Just put everything with the variable on one side and the numbers on the other. Then divide. Done.
Solving a linear equation is as easy as pie! Just isolate the variable (usually x or y) by moving terms from one side of the equation to the other. Remember: what you do to one side, you must do to the other. Simple as that!
From my experience, the trick is keeping it balanced. Imagine a seesaw! Moving terms is like redistributing weight to keep it level. Happy balancing!
