| 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | x | + | 25 | = | 60 | − | 1 | ÷ | 3 | × | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 2 | x | + | 25 |
1 2 | x | + | 25 | = | 60 | − | 1 | ÷ | 3 | × | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 60 | − | 1 3 | x |
1 2 | x | + | 25 | = | 60 | − | 1 3 | x |
1 2 | x | + | 1 3 | x | = | 60 | − | 25 |
5 6 | x | = | 60 | − | 25 |
5 6 | x | = | 35 |
| x | = | 35 | ÷ | 5 6 |
| = | 35 | × | 6 5 |
| = | 7 | × | 6 |
| x | = | 42 |
