That means that you need to find a way to solve for the letter k.  That meams you need to isolate k on one side and get the numbers on the other.  3k+16 equals (\") 5k.  So put all k's on one side and all the numbers on the other side of the equal sign.  re-write the equation as -5k+3k equals (\") -16.  You get a negitive equals sign becouse you moved it over across the equals sign, meaning it changes it sign.  Now add 3k pluse -5k, and you get -2k equals(\") to -16.  -2k\"-16, you must now dived the 2 away from k.  so you now have k one one side of the equal sign and -16 over 2, on the other.  How many times will 2 go into -16?  it will go into it 8 times, but don't forget the negitive sign.  \r<BR>\n" );
