| 17 | ÷ | 6 | × | ( | x | + | 24 | ) | = | 3 | ( | x | − | 249 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 17 6 | ( | x | + | 24 | ) |
17 6 | ( | x | + | 24 | ) | = | 3 | ( | x | − | 249 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 17 6 | x | + | 17 6 | × | 24 |
| = | 17 6 | x | + | 68 |
17 6 | x | + | 68 | = | 3 | ( | x | − | 249 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 3 | x | − | 3 | × | 249 |
| = | 3 | x | − | 747 |
17 6 | x | + | 68 | = | 3 | x | − | 747 |
17 6 | x | − | 3 | x | = | - | 747 | − | 68 |
| - | 1 6 | x | = | - | 747 | − | 68 |
| - | 1 6 | x | = | - | 815 |
| 815 | = | 1 6 | x |
1 6 | x | = | 815 |
| x | = | 815 | ÷ | 1 6 |
| = | 815 | × | 6 |
| x | = | 4890 |
