Solution
A number is divisible by 11, if the difference of the sum of its digits at odd places and the sum of its digits at even places is either 0 or a multiple of 11.
\[\text{ Sum of digits at odd places - Sum of digits at even places }\]
\[ = (6 + x + 9) - (7 + 1)\]
\[ = (15 + x) - 8 = x + 7\]
\[ \therefore x + 7 = 11\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 4\]
