| x | × | 3 | ÷ | 8 | + | 50 | = | 5 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | x | − | x | × | 3 | ÷ | 8 | − | 50 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | x | × | 3 8 | + | 50 |
3 8 | x | + | 50 | = | 5 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | x | − | x | × | 3 | ÷ | 8 | − | 50 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 7 | ( | x | − | x | × | 3 | ÷ | 8 | − | 50 | ) |
3 8 | x | + | 50 | = | 5 7 | ( | x | − | x | × | 3 | ÷ | 8 | − | 50 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 7 | x | − | 5 7 | x | × | 3 | ÷ | 8 | − | 5 7 | × | 50 |
| = | 5 7 | x | − | 15 56 | x | − | 250 7 |
| = | 25 56 | x | − | 250 7 |
3 8 | x | + | 50 | = | 25 56 | x | − | 250 7 |
3 8 | x | − | 25 56 | x | = | - | 250 7 | − | 50 |
| - | 1 14 | x | = | - | 250 7 | − | 50 |
| - | 1 14 | x | = | - | 600 7 |
600 7 | = | 1 14 | x |
1 14 | x | = | 600 7 |
| x | = | 600 7 | ÷ | 1 14 |
| = | 600 7 | × | 14 |
| = | 600 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 1200 |
