Answer:

x = 98

Explanation:

Solve for x:

(x - 14)/7 = 12

Multiply both sides of (x - 14)/7 = 12 by 7:

(7 (x - 14))/7 = 7×12

(7 (x - 14))/7 = 7/7×(x - 14) = x - 14:

x - 14 = 7×12

7×12 = 84:

x - 14 = 84

Add 14 to both sides:

x + (14 - 14) = 14 + 84

14 - 14 = 0:

x = 84 + 14

84 + 14 = 98:

Answer: x = 98
