| Left side of the equation = | 8 | x | × | 7 5 | + | 4 | × | 7 5 | − | 5 | × | 7 5 |
| = | 56 5 | x | + | 28 5 | − | 7 |
| = | 56 5 | x | − | 7 5 |
56 5 | x | − | 7 5 | = | 11 | x | + | 1 |
56 5 | x | − | 11 | x | = | 1 | + | 7 5 |
1 5 | x | = | 1 | + | 7 5 |
1 5 | x | = | 12 5 |
| x | = | 12 5 | ÷ | 1 5 |
| = | 12 5 | × | 5 |
