| 2 | ÷ | 5 | × | n | + | 3 | − | 7 | ÷ | 10 | × | n | = | 3 | ÷ | 5 | − | 3 | n |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 5 | n | + | 3 | − | 7 10 | n |
| = | - | 3 10 | n | + | 3 |
| - | 3 10 | n | + | 3 | = | 3 | ÷ | 5 | − | 3 | n |
| Right side of the equation = | 3 5 | − | 3 | n |
| - | 3 10 | n | + | 3 | = | 3 5 | − | 3 | n |
| - | 3 10 | n | + | 3 | n | = | 3 5 | − | 3 |
27 10 | n | = | 3 5 | − | 3 |
27 10 | n | = | - | 12 5 |
| n | = | - | 12 5 | ÷ | 27 10 |
| = | - | 12 5 | × | 10 27 |
| = | - | 4 | × | 2 9 |
| n | = | - | 8 9 |
| n | = | - 0.888889 |
