42x-28=6\times 5x+21
Multiply both sides of the equation by 42, the least common multiple of 3,7,2.
42x-28=30x+21
Multiply 6 and 5 to get 30.
42x-28-30x=21
Subtract 30x from both sides.
12x-28=21
Combine 42x and -30x to get 12x.
12x=21+28
Add 28 to both sides.
12x=49
Add 21 and 28 to get 49.
x=\frac{49}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
