You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5g-2h=3g%2B1
2g-2h=%2B1
2g=2h%2B1
g=%282h%2B1%29%2F2------------did you try this form of the expression on the right?

Your first expression is also correct but your other two are not.

I think I know what you want.
You have:
+h+%2B+1%2F2+
----------------
Use this equality:
+2%2F2+=+1+
------------------
This is true:
+h+%2B+1%2F2+=+1%2Ah+%2B+1%2F2+
So, this must be true:
+h+%2B+1%2F2+=+%282%2F2%29%2Ah+%2B+1%2F2+
-------------------------
Now I can write this as:
+%281%2F2%29%2A%28+2h+%2B+1+%29+
And this is the same as:
+%28+2h+%2B+1+%29%2F2+
---------------------
Hope this helps
