| ( | 750 | − | 55 | ) | ÷ | ( | 1 50 | ÷ | 13 10 | + | x | ÷ | 2 25 | ) | = | 1500 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 50 | ÷ | 13 10 | + | x | ÷ | 2 25 | ) |
| ( | 750 | − | 55 | ) | = | 1500 | ( | 1 50 | ÷ | 13 10 | + | x | ÷ | 2 25 | ) |
| 750 | − | 55 | = | 1500 | ( | 1 50 | ÷ | 13 10 | + | x | ÷ | 2 25 | ) |
| 750 | − | 55 | = | 1500 | × | 1 50 | ÷ | 13 10 | + | 1500 | x | ÷ | 2 25 |
| 750 | − | 55 | = | 300 13 | + | 18750 | x |
| 695 | = | 300 13 | + | 18750 | x |
| - | 18750 | x | = | 300 13 | − | 695 |
| - | 18750 | x | = | - | 8735 13 |
8735 13 | = | 18750 | x |
| 18750 | x | = | 8735 13 |
| x | = | 8735 13 | ÷ | 18750 |
| = | 8735 13 | × | 1 18750 |
| = | 1747 13 | × | 1 3750 |
| x | = | 1747 48750 |
| x | = | 0.035836 |
