| 1 | − | 3 | ÷ | 8 | × | x | = | 11 | ÷ | 24 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 | − | 3 8 | x |
| 1 | − | 3 8 | x | = | 11 | ÷ | 24 |
| Right side of the equation = | 11 24 |
| 1 | − | 3 8 | x | = | 11 24 |
| - | 3 8 | x | = | 11 24 | − | 1 |
| - | 3 8 | x | = | - | 13 24 |
13 24 | = | 3 8 | x |
3 8 | x | = | 13 24 |
| x | = | 13 24 | ÷ | 3 8 |
| = | 13 24 | × | 8 3 |
| = | 13 3 | × | 1 3 |
| x | = | 13 9 |
| x | = | 1.444444 |
