| x | − | ( | x | − | 5000 | ) | × | 3 100 | = | 7320 |
| Left side of the equation = | x | − | x | × | 3 100 | + | 5000 | × | 3 100 |
| = | x | − | x | × | 3 100 | + | 150 |
| = | 97 100 | x | + | 150 |
97 100 | x | + | 150 | = | 7320 |
97 100 | x | = | 7320 | − | 150 |
97 100 | x | = | 7170 |
| x | = | 7170 | ÷ | 97 100 |
| = | 7170 | × | 100 97 |
| x | = | 717000 97 |
| x | = | 7391.752577 |
