| X | − | 1 5 | X | − | 1 20 | X | − | 3 | = | 27 2 | + | 1 5 | × | 27 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 3 4 | X | − | 3 |
3 4 | X | − | 3 | = | 27 2 | + | 1 5 | × | 27 2 |
| Right side of the equation = | 27 2 | + | 27 10 |
| = | 81 5 |
3 4 | X | − | 3 | = | 81 5 |
3 4 | X | = | 81 5 | + | 3 |
3 4 | X | = | 96 5 |
| X | = | 96 5 | ÷ | 3 4 |
| = | 96 5 | × | 4 3 |
| = | 32 5 | × | 4 |
| X | = | 128 5 |
| X | = | 25.6 |
