| x | ÷ | ( | 1 | + | x | ) | = | 461 500 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | + | x | ) |
| x | = | 461 500 | ( | 1 | + | x | ) |
| x | = | 461 500 | × | 1 | + | 461 500 | x |
| x | = | 461 500 | + | 461 500 | x |
| x | − | 461 500 | x | = | 461 500 |
39 500 | x | = | 461 500 |
| x | = | 461 500 | ÷ | 39 500 |
| = | 461 500 | × | 500 39 |
| = | 461 | × | 1 39 |
| x | = | 461 39 |
| x | = | 11.820513 |
