| ( | 950 | − | x | ) | × | 62 | − | ( | 1000 | − | x | ) | × | 50 | = | 0 |
| Left side of the equation = | 950 | × | 62 | − | x | × | 62 | − | ( | 1000 | − | x | ) | × | 50 |
| = | 58900 | − | x | × | 62 | − | ( | 1000 | − | x | ) | × | 50 |
| = | 58900 | − | 62 | x | − | 1000 | × | 50 | + | x | × | 50 |
| = | 58900 | − | 62 | x | − | 50000 | + | x | × | 50 |
| = | 8900 | − | 12 | x |
| 8900 | − | 12 | x | = | 0 |
| - | 12 | x | = | 0 | − | 8900 |
| - | 12 | x | = | - | 8900 |
| 8900 | = | 12 | x |
| 12 | x | = | 8900 |
| x | = | 8900 | ÷ | 12 |
| = | 8900 | × | 1 12 |
| = | 2225 | × | 1 3 |
| x | = | 2225 3 |
| x | = | 741.666667 |
