2/3(7x+6/7)=-160/63
assuming you meant it as written,
clear fractions first to make things easy. multiply both sides by 63:
42(7x + 6/7) = -160
now clear parentheses:
294x + 36 = -160
now collect terms so all the x's are on one side, and numbers on the other:
294x = -196
now divide by 294 and reduce fraction to lowest terms:
x = -2/3
