| 78 | + | 32 | + | 7 | ( | x | − | 34 | ) | = | 19 5 | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 110 | + | 7 | ( | x | − | 34 | ) |
| 110 | + | 7 | ( | x | − | 34 | ) | = | 19 5 | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 110 | + | 7 | x | − | 7 | × | 34 |
| = | 110 | + | 7 | x | − | 238 |
| = | - | 128 | + | 7 | x |
| - | 128 | + | 7 | x | = | 19 5 | x |
| 7 | x | − | 19 5 | x | = | 128 |
16 5 | x | = | 128 |
| x | = | 128 | ÷ | 16 5 |
| = | 128 | × | 5 16 |
| = | 8 | × | 5 |
| x | = | 40 |
