| 15 | x | ÷ | ( | 246 | + | 15 | x | ) | = | 1 25 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 246 | + | 15 | x | ) |
| 15 | x | = | 1 25 | ( | 246 | + | 15 | x | ) |
| 15 | x | = | 1 25 | × | 246 | + | 1 25 | × | 15 | x |
| 15 | x | = | 246 25 | + | 3 5 | x |
| 15 | x | − | 3 5 | x | = | 246 25 |
72 5 | x | = | 246 25 |
| x | = | 246 25 | ÷ | 72 5 |
| = | 246 25 | × | 5 72 |
| = | 41 5 | × | 1 12 |
| x | = | 41 60 |
| x | = | 0.683333 |
