| 2 | x | ÷ | 50 | + | 800 | ÷ | 50 | = | ( | 800 | + | x | ) | ÷ | 18 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 25 | x | + | 16 |
1 25 | x | + | 16 | = | ( | 800 | + | x | ) | ÷ | 18 |
| Right side of the equation = | 800 | × | 1 18 | + | x | × | 1 18 |
| = | 400 9 | + | x | × | 1 18 |
1 25 | x | + | 16 | = | 400 9 | + | 1 18 | x |
1 25 | x | − | 1 18 | x | = | 400 9 | − | 16 |
| - | 7 450 | x | = | 400 9 | − | 16 |
| - | 7 450 | x | = | 256 9 |
| - | 256 9 | = | 7 450 | x |
7 450 | x | = | - | 256 9 |
| x | = | - | 256 9 | ÷ | 7 450 |
| = | - | 256 9 | × | 450 7 |
| = | - | 256 | × | 50 7 |
| x | = | - | 12800 7 |
