Simplify \(\frac{8x}{14}\) to \(\frac{4x}{7}\).
\[\frac{4x}{7}-6=18\]
Add \(6\) to both sides.
\[\frac{4x}{7}=18+6\]
Simplify \(18+6\) to \(24\).
\[\frac{4x}{7}=24\]
Multiply both sides by \(7\).
\[4x=24\times 7\]
Simplify \(24\times 7\) to \(168\).
\[4x=168\]
Divide both sides by \(4\).
\[x=\frac{168}{4}\]
Simplify \(\frac{168}{4}\) to \(42\).
\[x=42\]
x=42
