67 10 | x | − | 33 10 | ( | x | + | 21 10 | ) | = | 23 5 | x | − | 1689 100 |
| Left side of the equation = | 67 10 | x | − | 33 10 | x | − | 33 10 | × | 21 10 |
| = | 67 10 | x | − | 33 10 | x | − | 693 100 |
| = | 17 5 | x | − | 693 100 |
17 5 | x | − | 693 100 | = | 23 5 | x | − | 1689 100 |
17 5 | x | − | 23 5 | x | = | - | 1689 100 | + | 693 100 |
| - | 6 5 | x | = | - | 1689 100 | + | 693 100 |
| - | 6 5 | x | = | - | 249 25 |
249 25 | = | 6 5 | x |
6 5 | x | = | 249 25 |
| x | = | 249 25 | ÷ | 6 5 |
| = | 249 25 | × | 5 6 |
| = | 83 5 | × | 1 2 |
| x | = | 83 10 |
| x | = | 8.3 |
