| ( | 3 10 | x | + | 1 2 | ) | × | 2 | + | ( | x | + | 1 5 | ) | × | 5 | = | 3 |
| Left side of the equation = | 3 10 | x | × | 2 | + | 1 2 | × | 2 | + | ( | x | + | 1 5 | ) | × | 5 |
| = | 3 5 | x | + | 1 | + | ( | x | + | 1 5 | ) | × | 5 |
| = | 3 5 | x | + | 1 | + | x | × | 5 | + | 1 5 | × | 5 |
| = | 3 5 | x | + | 1 | + | x | × | 5 | + | 1 |
| = | 28 5 | x | + | 2 |
28 5 | x | + | 2 | = | 3 |
28 5 | x | = | 3 | − | 2 |
28 5 | x | = | 1 |
| x | = | 1 | ÷ | 28 5 |
| = | 1 | × | 5 28 |
| x | = | 5 28 |
| x | = | 0.178571 |
