14\times 2=9x-8
Multiply both sides by 2, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{2}.
28=9x-8
Multiply 14 and 2 to get 28.
9x-8=28
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
9x=28+8
Add 8 to both sides.
9x=36
Add 28 and 8 to get 36.
x=\frac{36}{9}
Divide both sides by 9.
x=4
Divide 36 by 9 to get 4.
