| ( | x | − | 2000 | ) | × | 3 10 | + | 2000 | = | x |
| Left side of the equation = | x | × | 3 10 | − | 2000 | × | 3 10 | + | 2000 |
| = | x | × | 3 10 | − | 600 | + | 2000 |
| = | 3 10 | x | + | 1400 |
3 10 | x | + | 1400 | = | x |
3 10 | x | − | x | = | - | 1400 |
| - | 7 10 | x | = | - | 1400 |
| 1400 | = | 7 10 | x |
7 10 | x | = | 1400 |
| x | = | 1400 | ÷ | 7 10 |
| = | 1400 | × | 10 7 |
| = | 200 | × | 10 |
| x | = | 2000 |
