| ( | ( | 60 | × | 2 5 | ) | + | ( | x | − | 60 | ) | × | 14 5 | ) | ÷ | x | = | 9 25 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x |
| ( | ( | 60 | × | 2 5 | ) | + | ( | x | − | 60 | ) | × | 14 5 | ) | = | 9 25 | x |
| ( | 60 | × | 2 5 | ) | + | ( | x | − | 60 | ) | × | 14 5 | = | 9 25 | x |
| 60 | × | 2 5 | + | ( | x | − | 60 | ) | × | 14 5 | = | 9 25 | x |
| 24 | + | ( | x | − | 60 | ) | × | 14 5 | = | 9 25 | x |
| 24 | + | x | × | 14 5 | − | 60 | × | 14 5 | = | 9 25 | x |
| 24 | + | x | × | 14 5 | − | 168 | = | 9 25 | x |
| - | 144 | + | 14 5 | x | = | 9 25 | x |
14 5 | x | − | 9 25 | x | = | 144 |
61 25 | x | = | 144 |
| x | = | 144 | ÷ | 61 25 |
| = | 144 | × | 25 61 |
| x | = | 3600 61 |
| x | = | 59.016393 |
