| x | ÷ | 933 5 | = | ( | 500 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 180 |
| Right side of the equation = | 500 | × | 1 180 | − | x | × | 1 180 |
| = | 25 9 | − | x | × | 1 180 |
5 933 | x | = | 25 9 | − | 1 180 | x |
5 933 | x | + | 1 180 | x | = | 25 9 |
611 55980 | x | = | 25 9 |
| x | = | 25 9 | ÷ | 611 55980 |
| = | 25 9 | × | 55980 611 |
| = | 25 | × | 6220 611 |
| x | = | 155500 611 |
| x | = | 254.500818 |
