$x = 16$ $x = 16$

Subtract the $7$ $7$ on both sides of the equation so it becomes:
$1 x = 23 - 7$ $1x = 23 - 7$

$1 x = 16$ $1x= 16$

$x = 16$ $x= 16$ because 16 divided by 1 is still 16.

$x = 16$ $x=16$

Let's subtract $7$ $7$ from both sides to get

$x = 23 - 7$ $x=23-7$

$\Rightarrow x = 16$ $=>x=16$

Hope this helps!
