$$8 - \frac{3 x}{5} = 14 - \frac{x}{5}$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
8-3/5*x = 14-1/5*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- \frac{3 x}{5} = 6 - \frac{x}{5}$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{\left(-2\right) x}{5} = 6$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -2/5
x = 6 / (-2/5)

We get the answer: x = -15
