| 7555 | x | + | 6800 | ( | 10 | − | x | ) | = | 74795 |
| Left side of the equation = | 7555 | x | + | 6800 | × | 10 | − | 6800 | x |
| = | 7555 | x | + | 68000 | − | 6800 | x |
| = | 755 | x | + | 68000 |
| 755 | x | + | 68000 | = | 74795 |
| 755 | x | = | 74795 | − | 68000 |
| 755 | x | = | 6795 |
| x | = | 6795 | ÷ | 755 |
| = | 6795 | × | 1 755 |
| = | 1359 | × | 1 151 |
| x | = | 1359 151 |
| x | = | 9 |
