| 50 | x | − | 5 100 | × | 50 | x | = | 100 | + | 55 100 | × | 50 | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 50 | x | − | 5 2 | x |
| = | 95 2 | x |
95 2 | x | = | 100 | + | 55 100 | × | 50 | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 100 | + | 55 2 | x |
95 2 | x | = | 100 | + | 55 2 | x |
95 2 | x | − | 55 2 | x | = | 100 |
| 20 | x | = | 100 |
| x | = | 100 | ÷ | 20 |
| = | 100 | × | 1 20 |
| = | 5 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 5 |
