| 1 | × | 46 | + | x | × | 95 | = | ( | 1 | + | x | ) | × | 52 |
| Left side of the equation = | 46 | + | x | × | 95 |
| 46 | + | 95 | x | = | ( | 1 | + | x | ) | × | 52 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 | × | 52 | + | x | × | 52 |
| = | 52 | + | x | × | 52 |
| 46 | + | 95 | x | = | 52 | + | 52 | x |
| 95 | x | − | 52 | x | = | 52 | − | 46 |
| 43 | x | = | 52 | − | 46 |
| 43 | x | = | 6 |
| x | = | 6 | ÷ | 43 |
| = | 6 | × | 1 43 |
| x | = | 6 43 |
| x | = | 0.139535 |
