| Left side of the equation = | 130 | ( | 60 | − | 2 | x | ) | − | 3 | x | ( | 60 | − | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 130 | × | 60 | − | 130 | × | 2 | x | − | 3 | x | ( | 60 | − | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 7800 | − | 260 | x | − | 3 | x | ( | 60 | − | 2 | x | ) |
| = | 7800 | − | 260 | x | − | 3 | x | × | 60 | + | 3 | x | × | 2 | x |
| = | 7800 | − | 260 | x | − | 180 | x | + | 6 | x | x |
