| 100 | x | ÷ | ( | 100 | + | x | ) | = | 167 10 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 100 | + | x | ) |
| 100 | x | = | 167 10 | ( | 100 | + | x | ) |
| 100 | x | = | 167 10 | × | 100 | + | 167 10 | x |
| 100 | x | = | 1670 | + | 167 10 | x |
| 100 | x | − | 167 10 | x | = | 1670 |
833 10 | x | = | 1670 |
| x | = | 1670 | ÷ | 833 10 |
| = | 1670 | × | 10 833 |
| x | = | 16700 833 |
| x | = | 20.048019 |
