| 200 | + | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | = | 150 | x | × | 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 200 | + | x | + | 2 |
| = | 202 | + | x |
| 202 | + | x | = | 150 | x | × | 2 |
| Right side of the equation = | 300 | x |
| 202 | + | x | = | 300 | x |
| x | − | 300 | x | = | - | 202 |
| - | 299 | x | = | - | 202 |
| 202 | = | 299 | x |
| 299 | x | = | 202 |
| x | = | 202 | ÷ | 299 |
| = | 202 | × | 1 299 |
| x | = | 202 299 |
| x | = | 0.675585 |
