| 20 | ( | 660 | − | x | ) | = | 14 | x | × | 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 20 | × | 660 | − | 20 | x |
| = | 13200 | − | 20 | x |
| 13200 | − | 20 | x | = | 14 | x | × | 2 |
| Right side of the equation = | 28 | x |
| 13200 | − | 20 | x | = | 28 | x |
| - | 20 | x | − | 28 | x | = | - | 13200 |
| - | 48 | x | = | - | 13200 |
| 13200 | = | 48 | x |
| 48 | x | = | 13200 |
| x | = | 13200 | ÷ | 48 |
| = | 13200 | × | 1 48 |
| = | 275 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 275 |
