| ( | 60 | − | 9 | x | ) | ( | 9 | x | + | 6 | ) | = | 1008 |
| Left side of the equation = | 60 | ( | 9 | x | + | 6 | ) | − | 9 | x | ( | 9 | x | + | 6 | ) |
| = | 60 | × | 9 | x | + | 60 | × | 6 | − | 9 | x | ( | 9 | x | + | 6 | ) |
| = | 540 | x | + | 360 | − | 9 | x | ( | 9 | x | + | 6 | ) |
| = | 540 | x | + | 360 | − | 9 | x | × | 9 | x | − | 9 | x | × | 6 |
| = | 540 | x | + | 360 | − | 81 | x | x | − | 54 | x |
| = | 486 | x | + | 360 | − | 81 | x | x |
| 486 | x | + | 360 | − | 81 | x | x | = | 1008 |
