| x | + | 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | ( | 180 | − | x | ) | = | 180 |
| Left side of the equation = | x | + | 1 2 | ( | 180 | − | x | ) |
| x | + | 1 2 | ( | 180 | − | x | ) | = | 180 |
| Left side of the equation = | x | + | 1 2 | × | 180 | − | 1 2 | x |
| = | x | + | 90 | − | 1 2 | x |
| = | 1 2 | x | + | 90 |
1 2 | x | + | 90 | = | 180 |
1 2 | x | = | 180 | − | 90 |
1 2 | x | = | 90 |
| x | = | 90 | ÷ | 1 2 |
| = | 90 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 180 |
