| 1250 | + | s | = | 5 4 | × | 650 | + | s | ÷ | 30 | × | 40 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1625 2 | + | s | × | 4 3 |
| 1250 | + | s | = | 1625 2 | + | 4 3 | s |
| s | − | 4 3 | s | = | 1625 2 | − | 1250 |
| - | 1 3 | s | = | 1625 2 | − | 1250 |
| - | 1 3 | s | = | - | 875 2 |
875 2 | = | 1 3 | s |
1 3 | s | = | 875 2 |
| s | = | 875 2 | ÷ | 1 3 |
| = | 875 2 | × | 3 |
| s | = | 2625 2 |
| s | = | 1312.5 |
