| 10 | ÷ | x | + | 6 | ÷ | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | = | 4 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x |
| 10 | + | 6 | ÷ | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | × | x | = | 4 | x |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| 10 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | + | 6 | x | = | 4 | x | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| 10 | x | + | 10 | × | 2 | + | 6 | x | = | 4 | x | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| 10 | x | + | 10 | × | 2 | + | 6 | x | = | 4 | x | x | + | 4 | x | × | 2 |
| 10 | x | + | 20 | + | 6 | x | = | 4 | x | x | + | 8 | x |
| 16 | x | + | 20 | = | 4 | x | x | + | 8 | x |
