| ( | 188 | + | x | ) | × | 24 5 | = | 5 | x | + | 188 | × | 469 100 |
| Left side of the equation = | 188 | × | 24 5 | + | x | × | 24 5 |
| = | 4512 5 | + | x | × | 24 5 |
4512 5 | + | 24 5 | x | = | 5 | x | + | 188 | × | 469 100 |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 | x | + | 22043 25 |
4512 5 | + | 24 5 | x | = | 5 | x | + | 22043 25 |
24 5 | x | − | 5 | x | = | 22043 25 | − | 4512 5 |
| - | 1 5 | x | = | 22043 25 | − | 4512 5 |
| - | 1 5 | x | = | - | 517 25 |
517 25 | = | 1 5 | x |
1 5 | x | = | 517 25 |
| x | = | 517 25 | ÷ | 1 5 |
| = | 517 25 | × | 5 |
| = | 517 5 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 517 5 |
