| ( | x | + | 9 | ) | ÷ | ( | x | − | 6 | ) | − | 16 | = | 0 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | − | 6 | ) |
| ( | x | + | 9 | ) | − | 16 | ( | x | − | 6 | ) | = | 0 |
| x | + | 9 | − | 16 | ( | x | − | 6 | ) | = | 0 |
| x | + | 9 | − | 16 | x | + | 16 | × | 6 | = | 0 |
| x | + | 9 | − | 16 | x | + | 96 | = | 0 |
| - | 15 | x | + | 105 | = | 0 |
| - | 15 | x | = | 0 | − | 105 |
| - | 15 | x | = | - | 105 |
| 105 | = | 15 | x |
| 15 | x | = | 105 |
| x | = | 105 | ÷ | 15 |
| = | 105 | × | 1 15 |
| = | 7 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 7 |
