| 3 | ÷ | 4 | × | x | − | 4 | ÷ | 5 | + | 1 | ÷ | 5 | = | 1 | ÷ | 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 3 4 | x | − | 4 5 | + | 1 5 |
| = | 3 4 | x | − | 3 5 |
3 4 | x | − | 3 5 | = | 1 | ÷ | 2 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 2 |
3 4 | x | − | 3 5 | = | 1 2 |
3 4 | x | = | 1 2 | + | 3 5 |
3 4 | x | = | 11 10 |
| x | = | 11 10 | ÷ | 3 4 |
| = | 11 10 | × | 4 3 |
| = | 11 5 | × | 2 3 |
| x | = | 22 15 |
| x | = | 1.466667 |
