| 24 | x | = | 30 | × | 9 10 | ( | x | − | 5 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 27 | ( | x | − | 5 | ) |
| 24 | x | = | 27 | ( | x | − | 5 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 27 | x | − | 27 | × | 5 |
| = | 27 | x | − | 135 |
| 24 | x | = | 27 | x | − | 135 |
| 24 | x | − | 27 | x | = | - | 135 |
| - | 3 | x | = | - | 135 |
| 135 | = | 3 | x |
| 3 | x | = | 135 |
| x | = | 135 | ÷ | 3 |
| = | 135 | × | 1 3 |
| = | 45 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 45 |
