| ( | 103 | + | x | ) | ÷ | ( | 124 | + | x | ) | = | 96 100 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 124 | + | x | ) |
| ( | 103 | + | x | ) | = | 96 100 | ( | 124 | + | x | ) |
| 103 | + | x | = | 96 100 | ( | 124 | + | x | ) |
| 103 | + | x | = | 96 100 | × | 124 | + | 96 100 | x |
| 103 | + | x | = | 2976 25 | + | 96 100 | x |
| x | − | 96 100 | x | = | 2976 25 | − | 103 |
1 25 | x | = | 2976 25 | − | 103 |
1 25 | x | = | 401 25 |
| x | = | 401 25 | ÷ | 1 25 |
| = | 401 25 | × | 25 |
| = | 401 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 401 |
