If the same fingering appears for more than one string, place the finger flat on the fingerboard as a 'bar', so all the strings can sound.

Examples of use
The 7th chord, also known as the Dominant 7th is so-called because it is formed from the 5th degree (or Dominant) of the scale. So in Db major , the dominant 7th chord Ab7 resolves to Db major



It's also possible to use the 7th chord as the dominant of other chords. For example, in Gb major, we could use Ab7 as the "dominant of the dominant". The notes of the Ab7 lead to Db, which itself can then lead as a Dominant chord back to the tonic Gb.
