| 2 | − | ( | 3 | x | − | 7 | ) | ÷ | 4 | = | - | ( | x | + | 7 | ) | ÷ | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | − | 3 | x | × | 1 4 | + | 7 | × | 1 4 |
| = | 2 | − | 3 4 | x | + | 7 4 |
| = | 15 4 | − | 3 4 | x |
15 4 | − | 3 4 | x | = | - | ( | x | + | 7 | ) | ÷ | 5 |
| Right side of the equation = | - | x | × | 1 5 | − | 7 | × | 1 5 |
| = | - | x | × | 1 5 | − | 7 5 |
15 4 | − | 3 4 | x | = | - | 1 5 | x | − | 7 5 |
| - | 3 4 | x | + | 1 5 | x | = | - | 7 5 | − | 15 4 |
| - | 11 20 | x | = | - | 7 5 | − | 15 4 |
| - | 11 20 | x | = | - | 103 20 |
103 20 | = | 11 20 | x |
11 20 | x | = | 103 20 |
| x | = | 103 20 | ÷ | 11 20 |
| = | 103 20 | × | 20 11 |
| = | 103 | × | 1 11 |
| x | = | 103 11 |
