| ( | x | − | 56 | ) | × | 3 4 | ÷ | 800 | = | ( | x | − | 20 | ) | × | 3 4 | ÷ | 820 |
| Left side of the equation = | ( | x | − | 56 | ) | × | 3 3200 |
| ( | x | − | 56 | ) | × | 3 3200 | = | ( | x | − | 20 | ) | × | 3 4 | ÷ | 820 |
| Left side of the equation = | x | × | 3 3200 | − | 56 | × | 3 3200 |
| = | x | × | 3 3200 | − | 21 400 |
