| ( | 25727 | + | X | ) | ÷ | ( | 20257 | − | X | ) | = | 3 2 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 20257 | − | X | ) |
| ( | 25727 | + | X | ) | = | 3 2 | ( | 20257 | − | X | ) |
| 25727 | + | X | = | 3 2 | ( | 20257 | − | X | ) |
| 25727 | + | X | = | 3 2 | × | 20257 | − | 3 2 | X |
| 25727 | + | X | = | 60771 2 | − | 3 2 | X |
| X | + | 3 2 | X | = | 60771 2 | − | 25727 |
5 2 | X | = | 60771 2 | − | 25727 |
5 2 | X | = | 9317 2 |
| X | = | 9317 2 | ÷ | 5 2 |
| = | 9317 2 | × | 2 5 |
| = | 9317 | × | 1 5 |
| X | = | 9317 5 |
| X | = | 1863.4 |
