Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{770}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x + \frac{x}{7} + \frac{1}{11} (x + \frac{x}{7}) = 60[/tex]

Required

Solve for x

[tex]x + \frac{x}{7} + \frac{1}{11} (x + \frac{x}{7}) = 60[/tex]

Start by solving the bracket [Take LCM]

[tex]x + \frac{x}{7} + \frac{1}{11} (\frac{7x + x}{7}) = 60[/tex]

[tex]x + \frac{x}{7} + \frac{1}{11} (\frac{8x}{7}) = 60[/tex]

Open the bracket

[tex]x + \frac{x}{7} + \frac{8x}{77} = 60[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\frac{77x + 11x + 8x}{77} = 60[/tex]

[tex]\frac{77x + 11x + 8x}{77} = 60[/tex]

[tex]\frac{96x}{77} = 60[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 77

[tex]77 * \frac{96x}{77} = 60 * 77[/tex]

[tex]96x = 60 * 77[/tex]

Divide both sides by 96

[tex]\frac{96x}{96} = \frac{60 * 77}{96}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{60 * 77}{96}[/tex]

Divide the numerator and denominator by 6

[tex]x = \frac{10 * 77}{16}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{770}{16}[/tex]
