Seven more than 3 times a number is equal to 49 can be put into an equation form, which would be 7 + 3x = 49. With this equation we can work it out, first we will subtract 7 from both sides of the equation to cancel out the 7. 49 - 7 = 42. Now we have 3x = 42. To isolate x and give us the answer we will divide by 3 on both sides, since 3 is being multiplied by x. This will give us our answer, which is 14.
