| 1 | ÷ | 30 | + | 1 | ÷ | x | = | 1 | ÷ | ( | 20 | + | x | ) |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x | , | ( | 20 | + | x | ) |
| 1 | ÷ | 30 | × | x | ( | 20 | + | x | ) | + | 1 | ( | 20 | + | x | ) | = | 1 | x |
| 1 | ÷ | 30 | × | x | × | 20 | + | 1 | ÷ | 30 | × | x | x | + | 1 | ( | 20 | + | x | ) | = | 1 | x |
2 3 | x | + | 1 30 | x | x | + | 1 | ( | 20 | + | x | ) | = | 1 | x |
2 3 | x | + | 1 30 | x | x | + | 1 | × | 20 | + | 1 | x | = | 1 | x |
2 3 | x | + | 1 30 | x | x | + | 20 | + | 1 | x | = | 1 | x |
5 3 | x | + | 1 30 | x | x | + | 20 | = | 1 | x |
