Start by adding +2 to each side:
3= 5/11 x-2
5=5/11 x

Next, you must "undo" the multiplication by the fraction 5/11. The best way to do this is to multiply both sides of the equation by the "reciprocal" of 5/11, which is 11/5.

5=%285%2F11%29%2Ax
5%2A%2811%2F5%29=%2811%2F5%29%2A%285%2F11%29%2Ax
11=x
