| 133 | x | ( | 1 | + | 40 100 | ) | = | 38 | ( | x | + | 441 10 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 133 | x | × | 1 | + | 133 | x | × | 40 100 |
| = | 133 | x | + | 266 5 | x |
| = | 931 5 | x |
931 5 | x | = | 38 | ( | x | + | 441 10 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 38 | x | + | 38 | × | 441 10 |
| = | 38 | x | + | 8379 5 |
931 5 | x | = | 38 | x | + | 8379 5 |
931 5 | x | − | 38 | x | = | 8379 5 |
741 5 | x | = | 8379 5 |
| x | = | 8379 5 | ÷ | 741 5 |
| = | 8379 5 | × | 5 741 |
| = | 2793 | × | 1 247 |
| x | = | 2793 247 |
| x | = | 147 13 |
| x | = | 11.307692 |
