We are given the following equation to solve for x.
[tex]7x-6=218[/tex]
The goal is to separate out the variable x.
Step 1:
Add 6 to both sides of the equation
[tex]\begin{gathered} 7x-6+6=218+6 \\ 7x=224 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Step 2: (last step)
Divide each side of the equation by 7
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{7x}{7}=\frac{224}{7} \\ x=32 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, the last step would be to "Divide each side of the equation by 7"
