| ( | 2 | x | − | 5 | ) | ÷ | 14 | − | 35 | − | x | ÷ | 14 | = | - | 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | x | × | 1 14 | − | 5 | × | 1 14 | − | 35 | − | 1 14 | x |
| = | 1 7 | x | − | 5 14 | − | 35 | − | 1 14 | x |
| = | 1 14 | x | − | 495 14 |
1 14 | x | − | 495 14 | = | - | 2 |
1 14 | x | = | - | 2 | + | 495 14 |
1 14 | x | = | 467 14 |
| x | = | 467 14 | ÷ | 1 14 |
| = | 467 14 | × | 14 |
| = | 467 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 467 |
