| ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | x | − | ( | 2 | ÷ | 3 | ) | x | = | 5 | ÷ | 6 |
| Left side of the equation = | 3 | ÷ | 4 | × | x | − | ( | 2 | ÷ | 3 | ) | x |
| = | 3 4 | x | − | ( | 2 | ÷ | 3 | ) | x |
| = | 3 4 | x | − | 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | x |
| = | 3 4 | x | − | 2 3 | x |
| = | 1 12 | x |
1 12 | x | = | 5 | ÷ | 6 |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 6 |
1 12 | x | = | 5 6 |
| x | = | 5 6 | ÷ | 1 12 |
| = | 5 6 | × | 12 |
| = | 5 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 10 |
