① | Step 1: Write $ 7 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{1} $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} 7 \cdot \frac{x}{14x-21} & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{7}{\color{red}{1}} \cdot \frac{x}{14x-21} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 7 \cdot x }{ 1 \cdot \left( 14x-21 \right) } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 7x }{ 14x-21 } \end{aligned} $$ |
