3 5 | − | 1 25 | ( | 1 | + | 1 | ÷ | x | ) | = | 2 5 |
3 5 | − | 1 25 | × | 1 | − | 1 25 | × | 1 | ÷ | x | = | 2 5 |
3 5 | − | 1 25 | − | 1 25 | ÷ | x | = | 2 5 |
14 25 | − | 1 25 | ÷ | x | = | 2 5 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x |
14 25 | x | − | 1 25 | = | 2 5 | x |
14 25 | x | − | 2 5 | x | = | 1 25 |
4 25 | x | = | 1 25 |
| x | = | 1 25 | ÷ | 4 25 |
| = | 1 25 | × | 25 4 |
| = | 1 | × | 1 4 |
| x | = | 1 4 |
| x | = | 0.25 |
