The meme is playing with the concept of the increment operator (++) from programming languages, but taking it to absurd mathematical extremes. In coding, x++ means "add 1 to x," but this meme suggests that 5++3 means "add 5 to itself 3 times" resulting in 5+5+5=15. It's basically what would happen if you let the software engineering interns rewrite mathematical notation. The mathematical purists are probably having aneurysms right now.
