| 6 | x | + | 4 | ( | 3000 | − | 6 | x | ) | = | 3000 |
| Left side of the equation = | 6 | x | + | 4 | × | 3000 | − | 4 | × | 6 | x |
| = | 6 | x | + | 12000 | − | 24 | x |
| = | - | 18 | x | + | 12000 |
| - | 18 | x | + | 12000 | = | 3000 |
| - | 18 | x | = | 3000 | − | 12000 |
| - | 18 | x | = | - | 9000 |
| 9000 | = | 18 | x |
| 18 | x | = | 9000 |
| x | = | 9000 | ÷ | 18 |
| = | 9000 | × | 1 18 |
| = | 500 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 500 |
