| ( | 169 | + | X | ) | ÷ | ( | 207 | + | X | ) | = | 47 50 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 207 | + | X | ) |
| ( | 169 | + | X | ) | = | 47 50 | ( | 207 | + | X | ) |
| 169 | + | X | = | 47 50 | ( | 207 | + | X | ) |
| 169 | + | X | = | 47 50 | × | 207 | + | 47 50 | X |
| 169 | + | X | = | 9729 50 | + | 47 50 | X |
| X | − | 47 50 | X | = | 9729 50 | − | 169 |
3 50 | X | = | 9729 50 | − | 169 |
3 50 | X | = | 1279 50 |
| X | = | 1279 50 | ÷ | 3 50 |
| = | 1279 50 | × | 50 3 |
| = | 1279 | × | 1 3 |
| X | = | 1279 3 |
| X | = | 426.333333 |
