17 2 | x | + | 84 5 | ( | 100 | − | x | ) | = | 0 |
| Left side of the equation = | 17 2 | x | + | 84 5 | × | 100 | − | 84 5 | x |
| = | 17 2 | x | + | 1680 | − | 84 5 | x |
| = | - | 83 10 | x | + | 1680 |
| - | 83 10 | x | + | 1680 | = | 0 |
| - | 83 10 | x | = | 0 | − | 1680 |
| - | 83 10 | x | = | - | 1680 |
| 1680 | = | 83 10 | x |
83 10 | x | = | 1680 |
| x | = | 1680 | ÷ | 83 10 |
| = | 1680 | × | 10 83 |
| x | = | 16800 83 |
| x | = | 202.409639 |
