Question 734327
 {{{x/6}}} + {{{6/7}}}(6x + 7)=898
get rid of those annoying denominators
multiply equation by the least common multiple of 6 & 7, which is 42
42*{{{x/6}}} + 42*{{{6/7}}}(6x + 7)= 42(898)
:
cancel the denominators
7x + 6*6(6x+7) = 37716
7x + 36(6x+7) = 37716
:
multiply what's inside the brackets
7x + 216x + 252 = 37716
223x = 37716 - 252
223x = 37464
x = {{{37464/223}}}
x = 168

:
Alot of math here, check the solution in the original problem
{{{168/6}}} + {{{6/7}}}(6(168) + 7)=898
28 + {{{6/7}}}(1008 + 7)=898
28 + {{{6/7}}}(1015)=898
28 + 870 = 898
