| 4 | x | + | 4 | ÷ | 3 | × | x | = | ( | 5 | × | 4 | ÷ | 3 | ) | x | + | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 4 | x | + | 4 3 | x |
| = | 16 3 | x |
16 3 | x | = | ( | 5 | × | 4 | ÷ | 3 | ) | x | + | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 | × | 4 | ÷ | 3 | × | x | + | x |
| = | 20 3 | x | + | x |
| = | 23 3 | x |
16 3 | x | = | 23 3 | x |
16 3 | x | − | 23 3 | x | = | 0 |
| - | 7 3 | x | = | 0 |
| - | 0 | = | 7 3 | x |
7 3 | x | = | - | 0 |
| x | = | - | 0 | ÷ | 7 3 |
| = | - | 0 | × | 3 7 |
| x | = | 0 |
