| ( | ( | 47000 | + | X | ) | ÷ | X | ) | × | 397 1000 | = | 12 |
| ( | 47000 | + | X | ) | ÷ | X | × | 397 1000 | = | 12 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | X |
| ( | 47000 | + | X | ) | × | 397 1000 | = | 12 | X |
| 47000 | × | 397 1000 | + | X | × | 397 1000 | = | 12 | X |
| 18659 | + | X | × | 397 1000 | = | 12 | X |
397 1000 | X | − | 12 | X | = | - | 18659 |
| - | 11603 1000 | X | = | - | 18659 |
| 18659 | = | 11603 1000 | X |
11603 1000 | X | = | 18659 |
| X | = | 18659 | ÷ | 11603 1000 |
| = | 18659 | × | 1000 11603 |
| X | = | 18659000 11603 |
| X | = | 1608.11859 |
