| x | ÷ | ( | 494 | + | 49 5 | + | x | ) | = | 2 25 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 494 | + | 49 5 | + | x | ) |
| x | = | 2 25 | ( | 494 | + | 49 5 | + | x | ) |
| x | = | 2 25 | × | 494 | + | 2 25 | × | 49 5 | + | 2 25 | x |
| x | = | 988 25 | + | 98 125 | + | 2 25 | x |
| x | = | 5038 125 | + | 2 25 | x |
| x | − | 2 25 | x | = | 5038 125 |
23 25 | x | = | 5038 125 |
| x | = | 5038 125 | ÷ | 23 25 |
| = | 5038 125 | × | 25 23 |
| = | 5038 5 | × | 1 23 |
| x | = | 5038 115 |
| x | = | 43.808696 |
