| 2 | + | 1 | ÷ | 6 | × | ( | x | − | 2 | − | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | x | ) | = | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | ( | x | − | 2 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | + | 1 6 | ( | x | − | 2 | − | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | x | ) |
| 2 | + | 1 6 | ( | x | − | 2 | − | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | x | ) | = | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | ( | x | − | 2 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | + | 1 6 | x | − | 1 6 | × | 2 | − | 1 6 | × | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | x |
| = | 2 | + | 1 6 | x | − | 1 3 | − | 1 30 | x |
| = | 5 3 | + | 2 15 | x |
5 3 | + | 2 15 | x | = | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | ( | x | − | 2 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 5 | ( | x | − | 2 | ) |
5 3 | + | 2 15 | x | = | 1 5 | ( | x | − | 2 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 5 | x | − | 1 5 | × | 2 |
| = | 1 5 | x | − | 2 5 |
5 3 | + | 2 15 | x | = | 1 5 | x | − | 2 5 |
2 15 | x | − | 1 5 | x | = | - | 2 5 | − | 5 3 |
| - | 1 15 | x | = | - | 2 5 | − | 5 3 |
| - | 1 15 | x | = | - | 31 15 |

1 15 | x | = | 31 15 |
| x | = | 31 15 | ÷ | 1 15 |
