| ( | x | + | 10 | ) | ÷ | ( | 10 | x | + | 10 | ) | = | 1 | ÷ | 7 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 10 | x | + | 10 | ) |
| ( | x | + | 10 | ) | = | 1 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | 10 | x | + | 10 | ) |
| x | + | 10 | = | 1 | ÷ | 7 | × | ( | 10 | x | + | 10 | ) |
| x | + | 10 | = | 1 | ÷ | 7 | × | 10 | x | + | 1 | ÷ | 7 | × | 10 |
| x | + | 10 | = | 10 7 | x | + | 10 7 |
| x | − | 10 7 | x | = | 10 7 | − | 10 |
| - | 3 7 | x | = | 10 7 | − | 10 |
| - | 3 7 | x | = | - | 60 7 |
60 7 | = | 3 7 | x |
3 7 | x | = | 60 7 |
| x | = | 60 7 | ÷ | 3 7 |
| = | 60 7 | × | 7 3 |
| = | 20 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 20 |
