| k | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | + | 4 | = | 3 | k | − | 1 | ÷ | 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | k | + | 1 3 | + | 4 |
| = | k | + | 13 3 |
| k | + | 13 3 | = | 3 | k | − | 1 | ÷ | 2 |
| Right side of the equation = | 3 | k | − | 1 2 |
| k | + | 13 3 | = | 3 | k | − | 1 2 |
| k | − | 3 | k | = | - | 1 2 | − | 13 3 |
| - | 2 | k | = | - | 1 2 | − | 13 3 |
| - | 2 | k | = | - | 29 6 |
29 6 | = | 2 | k |
| 2 | k | = | 29 6 |
| k | = | 29 6 | ÷ | 2 |
| = | 29 6 | × | 1 2 |
| k | = | 29 12 |
| k | = | 2.416667 |
