| 2 | X | − | 1 | ÷ | 3 | − | X | − | 1 | ÷ | 4 | = | 1 | − | 5 | X | + | 2 | ÷ | 6 |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | X | − | 1 3 | − | X | − | 1 4 |
| = | 1 | X | − | 7 12 |
| 1 | X | − | 7 12 | = | 1 | − | 5 | X | + | 2 | ÷ | 6 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 | − | 5 | X | + | 1 3 |
| = | 4 3 | − | 5 | X |
| 1 | X | − | 7 12 | = | 4 3 | − | 5 | X |
| 1 | X | + | 5 | X | = | 4 3 | + | 7 12 |
| 6 | X | = | 4 3 | + | 7 12 |
| 6 | X | = | 23 12 |
| X | = | 23 12 | ÷ | 6 |
| = | 23 12 | × | 1 6 |
| X | = | 23 72 |
| X | = | 0.319444 |
