To solve the equation \( 3 - 65x = -3 \):

  1. Start by isolating the term with \( x \): \[ 3 - 65x = -3 \]

    Subtract 3 from both sides: \[ -65x = -3 - 3 \] \[ -65x = -6 \]

  2. Now, divide both sides by -65: \[ x = \frac{-6}{-65} \] \[ x = \frac{6}{65} \]

Since none of the provided responses match \( x = \frac{6}{65} \), it seems there may have been a mistake in defining the problem or the answer choices. None of the given options (x = 5, x = 0, x = 6, x = -5) are correct based on the solution. The correct answer is \( x = \frac{6}{65} \).
