    let x represent the unknown number

    2x-5=3

    (add 5 to both sides)

    2x=8

    (divide by 2 on both sides)

    x=4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    LEt the number be x.

    2x - 5 = 3

    2x = 3 + 5 = 8

    x = 8/2 = 4

    To solve the equation: add 5 to both sides and then multiply by 1/2.
