Factor the binomial:
Look for a common factor in each of the two terms. Since there is a factor of 7 in the first term, it would be convenient to see a factor of 7 in the second term. Well, 49 = 7*7, so...
Now you can factor out a 7.
...and there it is.
Now to check the solution, you can apply the distributive property to your answer.
= and this is the original expression.
