| x | ÷ | 28 | + | ( | 72 5 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 44 | = | 224 25 | ÷ | 112 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 28 | x | + | 72 5 | × | 1 44 | − | x | × | 1 44 |
| = | 1 28 | x | + | 18 55 | − | x | × | 1 44 |
| = | 1 77 | x | + | 18 55 |
1 77 | x | + | 18 55 | = | 224 25 | ÷ | 112 5 |
| Right side of the equation = | 2 5 |
1 77 | x | + | 18 55 | = | 2 5 |
1 77 | x | = | 2 5 | − | 18 55 |
1 77 | x | = | 4 55 |
| x | = | 4 55 | ÷ | 1 77 |
| = | 4 55 | × | 77 |
| = | 4 5 | × | 7 |
| x | = | 28 5 |
| x | = | 5.6 |
