Answer:

[tex]a=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

[tex]5a-12=3[/tex]

To solve this equation, we need to add 12 on both sides and then isolate the variable for a.

[tex]5a-12=3[/tex]
[tex]-12+12=0[/tex]
[tex]12+3=15[/tex]
[tex]5a=15[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5a}{5} =\div5[/tex]
[tex]15\div5=3[/tex]
[tex]a=3[/tex]

Hope this helps.
