To determine the number of solutions for the equation \(11x = 3(7x - 1) - 10x\), let's simplify and solve the equation step by step.

1. Begin with the equation:
\[
11x = 3(7x - 1) - 10x
\]

2. Distribute \(3\) on the right side:
\[
11x = 21x - 3 - 10x
\]

3. Combine like terms on the right side:
\[
11x = (21x - 10x) - 3
\]
\[
11x = 11x - 3
\]

4. Next, subtract \(11x\) from both sides:
\[
11x - 11x = 11x - 11x - 3
\]
\[
0 = -3
\]

The statement \(0 = -3\) is a contradiction, which means that there are no values of \(x\) that satisfy the original equation.

Therefore, the equation has **no solution**.
