| 1 | ÷ | 3 | × | ( | 1 | − | 2 | x | ) | = | 2 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | 3 | x | − | 1 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 3 | ( | 1 | − | 2 | x | ) |
1 3 | ( | 1 | − | 2 | x | ) | = | 2 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | 3 | x | − | 1 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 3 | × | 1 | − | 1 3 | × | 2 | x |
| = | 1 3 | − | 2 3 | x |
1 3 | − | 2 3 | x | = | 2 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | 3 | x | − | 1 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 2 7 | ( | 3 | x | − | 1 | ) |
1 3 | − | 2 3 | x | = | 2 7 | ( | 3 | x | − | 1 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 2 7 | × | 3 | x | − | 2 7 | × | 1 |
| = | 6 7 | x | − | 2 7 |
1 3 | − | 2 3 | x | = | 6 7 | x | − | 2 7 |
| - | 2 3 | x | − | 6 7 | x | = | - | 2 7 | − | 1 3 |
| - | 32 21 | x | = | - | 2 7 | − | 1 3 |
| - | 32 21 | x | = | - | 13 21 |
13 21 | = | 32 21 | x |
32 21 | x | = | 13 21 |
| x | = | 13 21 | ÷ | 32 21 |
| = | 13 21 | × | 21 32 |
