1 answer

Let's solve the equation step by step and fill in the missing terms.

  1. Start with the equation: \[ 5r + 3 = 13 \]

  2. Subtract 3 from both sides: \[ 5r = 13 - 3 \] So, \[ 5r = 10 \]

  3. Divide both sides by 5: \[ r = \frac{10}{5} \] So, \[ r = 2 \]

To summarize:

  • After subtracting 3 from both sides, the equation becomes \( 5r = 10 \).
  • After dividing both sides by 5, we find \( r = 2 \).
