| ( | x | − | 9 | ) | ÷ | ( | x | + | 4 | ) | = | 6 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | + | 4 | ) |
| ( | x | − | 9 | ) | = | 6 | ( | x | + | 4 | ) |
| x | − | 9 | = | 6 | ( | x | + | 4 | ) |
| x | − | 9 | = | 6 | x | + | 6 | × | 4 |
| x | − | 9 | = | 6 | x | + | 24 |
| x | − | 6 | x | = | 24 | + | 9 |
| - | 5 | x | = | 24 | + | 9 |
| - | 5 | x | = | 33 |
| - | 33 | = | 5 | x |
| 5 | x | = | - | 33 |
| x | = | - | 33 | ÷ | 5 |
| = | - | 33 | × | 1 5 |
| x | = | - | 33 5 |
| x | = | - 6.6 |
