| 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | ( | X | ÷ | 3 | ) | − | 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | ( | 3 | + | X | ÷ | 2 | ) | = | 1 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 2 | ( | X | ÷ | 3 | ) | − | 2 3 | ( | 3 | + | X | ÷ | 2 | ) |
1 2 | ( | X | ÷ | 3 | ) | − | 2 3 | ( | 3 | + | X | ÷ | 2 | ) | = | 1 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 2 | X | ÷ | 3 | − | 2 3 | ( | 3 | + | X | ÷ | 2 | ) |
| = | 1 6 | X | − | 2 3 | ( | 3 | + | X | ÷ | 2 | ) |
| = | 1 6 | X | − | 2 3 | × | 3 | − | 2 3 | X | ÷ | 2 |
| = | 1 6 | X | − | 2 | − | 1 3 | X |
| = | - | 1 6 | X | − | 2 |
| - | 1 6 | X | − | 2 | = | 1 |
| - | 1 6 | X | = | 1 | + | 2 |
| - | 1 6 | X | = | 3 |
| - | 3 | = | 1 6 | X |
1 6 | X | = | - | 3 |
| X | = | - | 3 | ÷ | 1 6 |
