Rewrite the expression
81x×8x−81x×7
Factor out 81x from the expression
81x(8x−7)
81x(8x−7)=0
When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0
81x=08x−7=0
Solve the equation for x
x=08x−7=0
Solve the equation for x

Evaluate
8x−7=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
8x=0+7
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
8x=7
Divide both sides
88x=87
Divide the numbers
x=87
x=0x=87
