| ( | 184 | + | x | ) | ÷ | ( | 378 | + | x | ) | = | 1 2 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 378 | + | x | ) |
| ( | 184 | + | x | ) | = | 1 2 | ( | 378 | + | x | ) |
| 184 | + | x | = | 1 2 | ( | 378 | + | x | ) |
| 184 | + | x | = | 1 2 | × | 378 | + | 1 2 | x |
| 184 | + | x | = | 189 | + | 1 2 | x |
| x | − | 1 2 | x | = | 189 | − | 184 |
1 2 | x | = | 189 | − | 184 |
1 2 | x | = | 5 |
| x | = | 5 | ÷ | 1 2 |
| = | 5 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 10 |
