| 6 | ( | 5 | x | − | 9 | ) | + | 7 | ( | - | 4 | x | + | 16 | ) | − | 3 | = | 17 |
| Left side of the equation = | 6 | × | 5 | x | − | 6 | × | 9 | + | 7 | ( | - | 4 | x | + | 16 | ) | − | 3 |
| = | 30 | x | − | 54 | + | 7 | ( | - | 4 | x | + | 16 | ) | − | 3 |
| = | 30 | x | − | 57 | + | 7 | ( | - | 4 | x | + | 16 | ) |
| = | 30 | x | − | 57 | − | 7 | × | 4 | x | + | 7 | × | 16 |
| = | 30 | x | − | 57 | − | 28 | x | + | 112 |
| = | 2 | x | + | 55 |
| 2 | x | + | 55 | = | 17 |
| 2 | x | = | 17 | − | 55 |
| 2 | x | = | - | 38 |
| x | = | - | 38 | ÷ | 2 |
| = | - | 38 | × | 1 2 |
| = | - | 19 | × | 1 |
| x | = | - | 19 |
