| Left side of the equation = | 1 | x | + | 25 100 | x | + | ( | 200 | − | x | ) | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) |
| = | 5 4 | x | + | ( | 200 | − | x | ) | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) |
| = | 5 4 | x | + | 200 | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) | − | x | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) |
| = | 5 4 | x | + | 200 | × | 1 | + | 200 | × | 20 100 | − | x | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) |
| = | 5 4 | x | + | 200 | + | 40 | − | x | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) |
| = | 5 4 | x | + | 240 | − | x | ( | 1 | + | 20 100 | ) |
| = | 5 4 | x | + | 240 | − | x | × | 1 | − | x | × | 20 100 |
| = | 1 20 | x | + | 240 |
1 20 | x | + | 240 | = | 0 |
1 20 | x | = | 0 | − | 240 |
1 20 | x | = | - | 240 |
| x | = | - | 240 | ÷ | 1 20 |
| = | - | 240 | × | 20 |
