| ( | ( | 4 | × | 2268 5 | ) | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | ) | ÷ | ( | X | + | 2268 5 | ) | = | 24 5 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | X | + | 2268 5 | ) |
| ( | ( | 4 | × | 2268 5 | ) | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | ) | = | 24 5 | ( | X | + | 2268 5 | ) |
| ( | 4 | × | 2268 5 | ) | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | = | 24 5 | ( | X | + | 2268 5 | ) |
| ( | 4 | × | 2268 5 | ) | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | = | 24 5 | X | + | 24 5 | × | 2268 5 |
| ( | 4 | × | 2268 5 | ) | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | = | 24 5 | X | + | 54432 25 |
| 4 | × | 2268 5 | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | = | 24 5 | X | + | 54432 25 |
9072 5 | + | ( | X | × | 5 | ) | = | 24 5 | X | + | 54432 25 |
9072 5 | + | X | × | 5 | = | 24 5 | X | + | 54432 25 |
| 5 | X | − | 24 5 | X | = | 54432 25 | − | 9072 5 |
1 5 | X | = | 54432 25 | − | 9072 5 |
1 5 | X | = | 9072 25 |
| X | = | 9072 25 | ÷ | 1 5 |
| = | 9072 25 | × | 5 |
| = | 9072 5 | × | 1 |
| X | = | 9072 5 |
| X | = | 1814.4 |
