| x | ÷ | 9 10 | + | ( | x | − | 40 | ) | ÷ | 7 10 | = | 200 |
| Left side of the equation = | 10 9 | x | + | x | × | 10 7 | − | 40 | × | 10 7 |
| = | 10 9 | x | + | x | × | 10 7 | − | 400 7 |
| = | 160 63 | x | − | 400 7 |
160 63 | x | − | 400 7 | = | 200 |
160 63 | x | = | 200 | + | 400 7 |
160 63 | x | = | 1800 7 |
| x | = | 1800 7 | ÷ | 160 63 |
| = | 1800 7 | × | 63 160 |
| = | 45 | × | 9 4 |
| x | = | 405 4 |
| x | = | 101.25 |
