| ( | 11 10 | − | x | ) | ÷ | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | = | 1 4 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| ( | 11 10 | − | x | ) | = | 1 4 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
11 10 | − | x | = | 1 4 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
11 10 | − | x | = | 1 4 | x | + | 1 4 | × | 2 |
11 10 | − | x | = | 1 4 | x | + | 1 2 |
| - | x | − | 1 4 | x | = | 1 2 | − | 11 10 |
| - | 5 4 | x | = | 1 2 | − | 11 10 |
| - | 5 4 | x | = | - | 3 5 |
3 5 | = | 5 4 | x |
5 4 | x | = | 3 5 |
| x | = | 3 5 | ÷ | 5 4 |
| = | 3 5 | × | 4 5 |
| x | = | 12 25 |
| x | = | 0.48 |
