Solve 8=444(x-7)

$$8 = 444 ( x - 7 )$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{779}{111} = 7\frac{2}{111} \approx 7.018018018$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 444.

$$\frac{8}{444}=x-7$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{8}{444} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$\frac{2}{111}=x-7$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$x-7=\frac{2}{111}$$

Add 7 to both sides.

$$x=\frac{2}{111}+7$$

Convert 7 to fraction \frac{777}{111}.

$$x=\frac{2}{111}+\frac{777}{111}$$

Since \frac{2}{111} and \frac{777}{111} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x=\frac{2+777}{111}$$

Add 2 and 777 to get 779.

$$x=\frac{779}{111}$$
