See a solution process below:

First, add #color(red)(5)# to each side of the equation to isolate the #v# term while keeping the equation balanced:

#color(red)(5) + 103 = color(red)(5) - 5 + 6v#

#108 = 0 + 6v#

#108 = 6v#

Now, divide each side of the equation by #color(red)(6)# to solve for #v# while keeping the equation balanced:

#108/color(red)(6) = (6v)/color(red)(6)#

#18 = (color(red)(cancel(color(black)(6)))v)/cancel(color(red)(6))#

#18 = v#

#v = 18#
