| ( | x | + | 2 | ) | × | 3 | ÷ | 4 | = | 3 | ÷ | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | × | 3 4 |
| ( | x | + | 2 | ) | × | 3 4 | = | 3 | ÷ | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | x | × | 3 4 | + | 2 | × | 3 4 |
| = | x | × | 3 4 | + | 3 2 |
3 4 | x | + | 3 2 | = | 3 | ÷ | 5 |
| Right side of the equation = | 3 5 |
3 4 | x | + | 3 2 | = | 3 5 |
3 4 | x | = | 3 5 | − | 3 2 |
3 4 | x | = | - | 9 10 |
| x | = | - | 9 10 | ÷ | 3 4 |
| = | - | 9 10 | × | 4 3 |
| = | - | 3 5 | × | 2 |
| x | = | - | 6 5 |
| x | = | - 1.2 |
