| 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | x | − | 1 | ÷ | 3 | = | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | x | + | 1 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 2 | x | − | 1 3 |
1 2 | x | − | 1 3 | = | 1 | ÷ | 5 | × | x | + | 1 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 5 | x | + | 1 |
1 2 | x | − | 1 3 | = | 1 5 | x | + | 1 |
1 2 | x | − | 1 5 | x | = | 1 | + | 1 3 |
3 10 | x | = | 1 | + | 1 3 |
3 10 | x | = | 4 3 |
| x | = | 4 3 | ÷ | 3 10 |
| = | 4 3 | × | 10 3 |
| x | = | 40 9 |
| x | = | 4.444444 |
