| x | ÷ | 14 | + | ( | 3 | + | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) | = | 2 | ( | x | ÷ | 21 | + | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | ) | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 14 | x | + | 3 | + | 1 | ÷ | 2 |
| = | 1 14 | x | + | 3 | + | 1 2 |
| = | 1 14 | x | + | 7 2 |
1 14 | x | + | 7 2 | = | 2 | ( | x | ÷ | 21 | + | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | ) | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 2 | x | ÷ | 21 | + | 2 | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | ) |
| = | 2 21 | x | + | 2 | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | ) |
| = | 2 21 | x | + | 2 | × | 1 | + | 2 | × | 1 | ÷ | 3 |
| = | 2 21 | x | + | 2 | + | 2 3 |
| = | 2 21 | x | + | 8 3 |
1 14 | x | + | 7 2 | = | 2 21 | x | + | 8 3 |
1 14 | x | − | 2 21 | x | = | 8 3 | − | 7 2 |
| - | 1 42 | x | = | 8 3 | − | 7 2 |
| - | 1 42 | x | = | - | 5 6 |
5 6 | = | 1 42 | x |
1 42 | x | = | 5 6 |
| x | = | 5 6 | ÷ | 1 42 |
| = | 5 6 | × | 42 |
| = | 5 | × | 7 |
| x | = | 35 |
