x\times 47-56+x\left(-11\right)=29x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
36x-56=29x
Combine x\times 47 and x\left(-11\right) to get 36x.
36x-56-29x=0
Subtract 29x from both sides.
7x-56=0
Combine 36x and -29x to get 7x.
7x=56
Add 56 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{56}{7}
Divide both sides by 7.
x=8
Divide 56 by 7 to get 8.
