| 285 | × | 453 100 | + | 5 | x | = | 285 | × | 24 5 | + | 24 5 | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 25821 20 | + | 5 | x |
25821 20 | + | 5 | x | = | 285 | × | 24 5 | + | 24 5 | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 1368 | + | 24 5 | x |
25821 20 | + | 5 | x | = | 1368 | + | 24 5 | x |
| 5 | x | − | 24 5 | x | = | 1368 | − | 25821 20 |
1 5 | x | = | 1368 | − | 25821 20 |
1 5 | x | = | 1539 20 |
| x | = | 1539 20 | ÷ | 1 5 |
| = | 1539 20 | × | 5 |
| = | 1539 4 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 1539 4 |
| x | = | 384.75 |
