    First, you need to get rid of the parenthesis by distributing:

    3 (x + 1) = 3x + 3

    So 7x - 16 = 3x + 3 - 3

    7x - 16 = 3x

    Subtract both sides by 3x and you'll get:

    4x - 16 = 0

    Now, add 16 to both sides and you'll get:

    4x = 16

    Divide both sides by 4:

    x = 4
