| ( | x | − | 22 | ) | ÷ | x | × | 100 100 | = | 89 200 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x |
| ( | x | − | 22 | ) | × | 100 100 | = | 89 200 | x |
| x | × | 100 100 | − | 22 | × | 100 100 | = | 89 200 | x |
| x | × | 100 100 | − | 22 | = | 89 200 | x |
100 100 | x | − | 89 200 | x | = | 22 |
111 200 | x | = | 22 |
| x | = | 22 | ÷ | 111 200 |
| = | 22 | × | 200 111 |
| x | = | 4400 111 |
| x | = | 39.63964 |
