| 2 | = | ( | 422 125 | + | 247 125 | X | ) | ÷ | ( | X | + | 1 | ) |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | X | + | 1 | ) |
| 2 | ( | X | + | 1 | ) | = | ( | 422 125 | + | 247 125 | X | ) |
| 2 | X | + | 2 | × | 1 | = | ( | 422 125 | + | 247 125 | X | ) |
| 2 | X | + | 2 | × | 1 | = | 422 125 | + | 247 125 | X |
| 2 | X | + | 2 | = | 422 125 | + | 247 125 | X |
| 2 | X | − | 247 125 | X | = | 422 125 | − | 2 |
3 125 | X | = | 422 125 | − | 2 |
3 125 | X | = | 172 125 |
| X | = | 172 125 | ÷ | 3 125 |
| = | 172 125 | × | 125 3 |
| = | 172 | × | 1 3 |
| X | = | 172 3 |
| X | = | 57.333333 |
