1. The user asked to make a previous explanation simpler. 2. Since no specific problem was provided in this message, I will simplify the explanation of a common algebraic concept: solving a linear equation. 3. Problem: Solve for $x$ in the equation $2x + 3 = 7$. 4. Step 1: Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the term with $x$. $$2x + 3 - \cancel{3} = 7 - \cancel{3}$$ $$2x = 4$$ 5. Step 2: Divide both sides by 2 to solve for $x$. $$\frac{2x}{\cancel{2}} = \frac{4}{\cancel{2}}$$ $$x = 2$$ 6. Final answer: $x = 2$. 7. This means if you replace $x$ with 2 in the original equation, both sides will be equal. 8. This is a simple way to solve linear equations by undoing operations step-by-step.
