The solution

You have entered [src]
7*(x - 1) = 6 - 2*(3 - 14*x)
$$7 \left(x - 1\right) = 6 - 2 \left(3 - 14 x\right)$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
7*(x-1) = 6-2*(3-14*x)

Expand brackets in the left part
7*x-7*1 = 6-2*(3-14*x)

Expand brackets in the right part
7*x-7*1 = 6-2*3+2*14*x

Looking for similar summands in the right part:
-7 + 7*x = 28*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$7 x = 28 x + 7$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-21\right) x = 7$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -21
x = 7 / (-21)

We get the answer: x = -1/3
