How do you solve 7x equals 7?

Answer 1

It is solved when you have it in the form of (x = some number). In this case, you have 7x on one side, which is 7 times x. You need to divide both sides by 7, so you have: 7x / 7 = 7/7.

On the left side, this becomes x. On the right side 7/7 = 1, so x=1 solves the equation. If you 'plug in' x=1 to the original equation, you get 7(1) = 7, or 7 times 1 equals 7, which is true.
