| 19 | + | 7 | ( | 5 | + | 2 | ( | - | 10 | + | x | ) | ) | = | 8 | ( | 8 | x | + | 8 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 19 | + | 7 | × | 5 | + | 7 | × | 2 | ( | - | 10 | + | x | ) |
| = | 19 | + | 35 | + | 14 | ( | - | 10 | + | x | ) |
| = | 54 | + | 14 | ( | - | 10 | + | x | ) |
| = | 54 | − | 14 | × | 10 | + | 14 | x |
| = | 54 | − | 140 | + | 14 | x |
| = | - | 86 | + | 14 | x |
| - | 86 | + | 14 | x | = | 8 | ( | 8 | x | + | 8 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 8 | × | 8 | x | + | 8 | × | 8 |
| = | 64 | x | + | 64 |
| - | 86 | + | 14 | x | = | 64 | x | + | 64 |
| 14 | x | − | 64 | x | = | 64 | + | 86 |
| - | 50 | x | = | 64 | + | 86 |
| - | 50 | x | = | 150 |
| - | 150 | = | 50 | x |
| 50 | x | = | - | 150 |
| x | = | - | 150 | ÷ | 50 |
| = | - | 150 | × | 1 50 |
| = | - | 3 | × | 1 |
