x = unknown variable
a = known number
b = known number
c = known number
---
(x + a)/b = c
x + a = b*c
x = b*c - a

Giving a specific example might be better.

x, an unknown variable.
Other variables as constants.

This example fits your description:

Objective is solve for the unknown x. Use number properties to isolate x on one side and all constants on the other side. Look at how x appears in the original equation, and identify everything that was done to it to make the equation.

Started with x;
Added k;
Multiplied by ;
The result gave r.
-
Do all the steps in REVERSE order and use the INVERSES to do it.

Starting now with the original equation:
Multiply by the multiplicative inverse of ;
Add the additive inverse of ;
DONE.

Those steps should look like this or consistant with:
