| x | = | 5850 | ÷ | ( | 100 | − | 321 50 | − | 472 25 | ) |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 100 | − | 321 50 | − | 472 25 | ) |
| x | ( | 100 | − | 321 50 | − | 472 25 | ) | = | 5850 |
| x | × | 100 | − | x | × | 321 50 | − | x | × | 472 25 | = | 5850 |
747 10 | x | = | 5850 |
| x | = | 5850 | ÷ | 747 10 |
| = | 5850 | × | 10 747 |
| = | 650 | × | 10 83 |
| x | = | 6500 83 |
| x | = | 78.313253 |
