| 4 | ( | t | − | 56 | ) | = | 28 | ( | 80 | − | t | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 4 | t | − | 4 | × | 56 |
| = | 4 | t | − | 224 |
| 4 | t | − | 224 | = | 28 | ( | 80 | − | t | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 28 | × | 80 | − | 28 | t |
| = | 2240 | − | 28 | t |
| 4 | t | − | 224 | = | 2240 | − | 28 | t |
| 4 | t | + | 28 | t | = | 2240 | + | 224 |
| 32 | t | = | 2240 | + | 224 |
| 32 | t | = | 2464 |
| t | = | 2464 | ÷ | 32 |
| = | 2464 | × | 1 32 |
| = | 77 | × | 1 |
| t | = | 77 |
