| ( | 100 | − | 55 | − | x | ) | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) | = | 2800 |
| Left side of the equation = | 100 | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) | − | 55 | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) | − | x | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 100 | × | 50 | + | 100 | × | 2 | x | − | 55 | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) | − | x | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 5000 | + | 200 | x | − | 55 | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) | − | x | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 5000 | + | 200 | x | − | 55 | × | 50 | − | 55 | × | 2 | x | − | x | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 5000 | + | 200 | x | − | 2750 | − | 110 | x | − | x | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 2250 | + | 90 | x | − | x | ( | 50 | + | 2 | x | ) |
