| ( | x | ÷ | 7 10 | ) | − | ( | x | ÷ | ( | x | ÷ | 7 10 | ) | ) | = | 30 100 |
| x | ÷ | 7 10 | − | ( | x | ÷ | ( | x | ÷ | 7 10 | ) | ) | = | 30 100 |
10 7 | x | − | x | ÷ | ( | x | ÷ | 7 10 | ) | = | 30 100 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 | ) |
10 7 | x | ( | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 | ) | − | 1 | = | 30 100 | ( | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 | ) |
10 7 | x | × | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 | − | 1 | = | 30 100 | ( | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 | ) |
10 7 | x | × | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 | − | 1 | = | 30 100 | × | 1 | ÷ | 7 10 |
100 49 | x | − | 1 | = | 3 7 |
100 49 | x | = | 3 7 | + | 1 |
100 49 | x | = | 10 7 |
| x | = | 10 7 | ÷ | 100 49 |
| = | 10 7 | × | 49 100 |
| = | 1 | × | 7 10 |
| x | = | 7 10 |
| x | = | 0.7 |
