| 20 | x | − | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 6 | ) | x | + | x | + | x | + | 5 | ÷ | 6 | = | 7 |
| Left side of the equation = | 20 | x | − | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 6 | ) | x | + | x | + | x | + | 5 6 |

| 22 | x | − | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | 6 | ) | x | + | 5 6 | = | 7 |
| Left side of the equation = | 22 | x | − | 1 | x | − | 1 | ÷ | 6 | × | x | + | 5 6 |
| = | 22 | x | − | 1 | x | − | 1 6 | x | + | 5 6 |
| = | 125 6 | x | + | 5 6 |
125 6 | x | + | 5 6 | = | 7 |
125 6 | x | = | 7 | − | 5 6 |
125 6 | x | = | 37 6 |
| x | = | 37 6 | ÷ | 125 6 |
| = | 37 6 | × | 6 125 |
| = | 37 | × | 1 125 |
| x | = | 37 125 |
