### Solving Linear Equations

#### Question 3 of 10, Step 1 of 1

**Task:**
Solve the following linear equation using equivalent equations to isolate the variable. Express your answer as an integer, as a simplified fraction, or as a decimal number rounded to two places.

**Equation:**
\[
-7v = -21
\]

**Answer:**
To find the value of \( v \), you need to isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by \(-7\).

\[ 
v = \frac{-21}{-7} 
\]

Simplify the equation to find:

\[ 
v = 3 
\]

**Instructions for submitting your answer:**
Enter the value in the input box provided and click on "Submit Answer."
