| ( | x | + | 120 | ) | ÷ | ( | ( | 1 | + | 1 5 | x | ) | + | 160 | ) | = | 11 | ÷ | 14 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | ( | 1 | + | 1 5 | x | ) | + | 160 | ) |
| ( | x | + | 120 | ) | = | 11 | ÷ | 14 | × | ( | ( | 1 | + | 1 5 | x | ) | + | 160 | ) |
| x | + | 120 | = | 11 | ÷ | 14 | × | ( | ( | 1 | + | 1 5 | x | ) | + | 160 | ) |
| x | + | 120 | = | 11 | ÷ | 14 | × | ( | 1 | + | 1 5 | x | ) | + | 11 | ÷ | 14 | × | 160 |
| x | + | 120 | = | 11 14 | ( | 1 | + | 1 5 | x | ) | + | 880 7 |
| x | + | 120 | = | 11 14 | × | 1 | + | 11 14 | × | 1 5 | x | + | 880 7 |
| x | + | 120 | = | 11 14 | + | 11 70 | x | + | 880 7 |
| x | + | 120 | = | 253 2 | + | 11 70 | x |
| x | − | 11 70 | x | = | 253 2 | − | 120 |
59 70 | x | = | 253 2 | − | 120 |
59 70 | x | = | 13 2 |
| x | = | 13 2 | ÷ | 59 70 |
| = | 13 2 | × | 70 59 |
| = | 13 | × | 35 59 |
| x | = | 455 59 |
| x | = | 7.711864 |
