I don't understand how CT = 5/3x when the question stated CT = 5 units?

I called AC = x, and the problem says that AC:CT = 3/5. It comes from this.

Could you please provide the workings on how you end up to CT = 5/3x because I think my algebra skills is abnormally weak from this question.

I called AC = x. From the question, you see that the ratio AC:CT = 3:5, so that means CT = 5/3 AC or CT = (5/3)x
