20 100 | + | ( | 20 100 | − | x | ) | ( | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | ) | = | 25 100 |
| Left side of the equation = | 20 100 | + | 20 100 | ( | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | ) | − | x | ( | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | ) |
| = | 20 100 | + | 20 100 | × | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | − | x | ( | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | ) |
| = | 20 100 | + | 3 40 | − | x | ( | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | ) |
| = | 11 40 | − | x | ( | 600 | ÷ | 1600 | ) |
| = | 11 40 | − | x | × | 600 | ÷ | 1600 |
| = | 11 40 | − | x | × | 3 8 |
11 40 | − | 3 8 | x | = | 25 100 |
| - | 3 8 | x | = | 25 100 | − | 11 40 |
| - | 3 8 | x | = | - | 1 40 |
1 40 | = | 3 8 | x |
3 8 | x | = | 1 40 |
| x | = | 1 40 | ÷ | 3 8 |
| = | 1 40 | × | 8 3 |
| = | 1 5 | × | 1 3 |
| x | = | 1 15 |
| x | = | 0.066667 |
