7000\left(x-3\right)=20000
Variable x cannot be equal to 3 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x-3.
7000x-21000=20000
Use the distributive property to multiply 7000 by x-3.

Add 20000 and 21000 to get 41000.
x=\frac{41000}{7000}
Divide both sides by 7000.
x=\frac{41}{7}
Reduce the fraction \frac{41000}{7000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 1000.
