| ( | 3 2500 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 1 5000 | = | 17 10000 | ÷ | 27 10000 |
| Left side of the equation = | 3 2500 | × | 5000 | − | x | × | 5000 |
| = | 6 | − | x | × | 5000 |
| 6 | − | 5000 | x | = | 17 10000 | ÷ | 27 10000 |
| Right side of the equation = | 17 27 |
| 6 | − | 5000 | x | = | 17 27 |
| - | 5000 | x | = | 17 27 | − | 6 |
| - | 5000 | x | = | - | 145 27 |
145 27 | = | 5000 | x |
| 5000 | x | = | 145 27 |
| x | = | 145 27 | ÷ | 5000 |
| = | 145 27 | × | 1 5000 |
| = | 29 27 | × | 1 1000 |
| x | = | 29 27000 |
| x | = | 0.001074 |
