| x | ÷ | ( | x | + | ( | 1 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 1 20 | ) | = | 9 10 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | + | ( | 1 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 1 20 | ) |
| x | = | 9 10 | ( | x | + | ( | 1 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 1 20 | ) |
| x | = | 9 10 | x | + | 9 10 | ( | 1 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 1 20 |
| x | = | 9 10 | x | + | 18 | ( | 1 | − | x | ) |
| x | = | 9 10 | x | + | 18 | × | 1 | − | 18 | x |
| x | = | 9 10 | x | + | 18 | − | 18 | x |
| x | = | - | 171 10 | x | + | 18 |
| x | + | 171 10 | x | = | 18 |
181 10 | x | = | 18 |
| x | = | 18 | ÷ | 181 10 |
| = | 18 | × | 10 181 |
| x | = | 180 181 |
| x | = | 0.994475 |
