Simplify \(2x\times 3\) to \(6x\).
\[6x+1=7x\times 16+3\]
Simplify \(7x\times 16\) to \(112x\).
\[6x+1=112x+3\]
Subtract \(6x\) from both sides.
\[1=112x+3-6x\]
Simplify \(112x+3-6x\) to \(106x+3\).
\[1=106x+3\]
Subtract \(3\) from both sides.
\[1-3=106x\]
Simplify \(1-3\) to \(-2\).
\[-2=106x\]
Divide both sides by \(106\).
\[-\frac{2}{106}=x\]
Simplify \(\frac{2}{106}\) to \(\frac{1}{53}\).
\[-\frac{1}{53}=x\]
Switch sides.
\[x=-\frac{1}{53}\]
Decimal Form: -0.018868
x=-1/53
