| 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | x | + | 5 | ÷ | 7 | = | 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | x | + | 22 | ÷ | 21 |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 3 | x | + | 5 7 |
2 3 | x | + | 5 7 | = | 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | x | + | 22 | ÷ | 21 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 2 | x | + | 22 21 |
2 3 | x | + | 5 7 | = | 1 2 | x | + | 22 21 |
2 3 | x | − | 1 2 | x | = | 22 21 | − | 5 7 |
1 6 | x | = | 22 21 | − | 5 7 |
1 6 | x | = | 1 3 |
| x | = | 1 3 | ÷ | 1 6 |
| = | 1 3 | × | 6 |
| = | 1 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 2 |
