| 37 | × | 5 | + | 5 | x | + | 4 | = | 47 10 | ( | 41 | + | x | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 185 | + | 5 | x | + | 4 |
| = | 189 | + | 5 | x |
| 189 | + | 5 | x | = | 47 10 | ( | 41 | + | x | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 47 10 | × | 41 | + | 47 10 | x |
| = | 1927 10 | + | 47 10 | x |
| 189 | + | 5 | x | = | 1927 10 | + | 47 10 | x |
| 5 | x | − | 47 10 | x | = | 1927 10 | − | 189 |
3 10 | x | = | 1927 10 | − | 189 |
3 10 | x | = | 37 10 |
| x | = | 37 10 | ÷ | 3 10 |
| = | 37 10 | × | 10 3 |
| = | 37 | × | 1 3 |
| x | = | 37 3 |
| x | = | 12.333333 |
