| ( | 114 | + | 13 | x | ) | ÷ | 7 | = | 3 | x | + | 14 |
| Left side of the equation = | 114 | × | 1 7 | + | 13 | x | × | 1 7 |
| = | 114 7 | + | 13 7 | x |
114 7 | + | 13 7 | x | = | 3 | x | + | 14 |
13 7 | x | − | 3 | x | = | 14 | − | 114 7 |
| - | 8 7 | x | = | 14 | − | 114 7 |
| - | 8 7 | x | = | - | 16 7 |
16 7 | = | 8 7 | x |
8 7 | x | = | 16 7 |
| x | = | 16 7 | ÷ | 8 7 |
| = | 16 7 | × | 7 8 |
| = | 2 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 2 |
