40 100 | X | + | 50 | = | 5 | ÷ | 11 | × | ( | X | + | 50 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 11 | ( | X | + | 50 | ) |
40 100 | X | + | 50 | = | 5 11 | ( | X | + | 50 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 11 | X | + | 5 11 | × | 50 |
| = | 5 11 | X | + | 250 11 |
40 100 | X | + | 50 | = | 5 11 | X | + | 250 11 |
40 100 | X | − | 5 11 | X | = | 250 11 | − | 50 |
| - | 3 55 | X | = | 250 11 | − | 50 |
| - | 3 55 | X | = | - | 300 11 |
300 11 | = | 3 55 | X |
3 55 | X | = | 300 11 |
| X | = | 300 11 | ÷ | 3 55 |
| = | 300 11 | × | 55 3 |
| = | 100 | × | 5 |
| X | = | 500 |
