7\left(x-2\right)=56
Variable x cannot be equal to 2 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x-2.
7x-14=56
Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by x-2.
7x=56+14
Add 14 to both sides.
7x=70
Add 56 and 14 to get 70.
x=\frac{70}{7}
Divide both sides by 7.
x=10
Divide 70 by 7 to get 10.
