| ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | ÷ | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) | × | x | = | ( | 4 | ÷ | 5 | ) |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) |
| ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | x | = | ( | 4 | ÷ | 5 | ) | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) |
| 3 | ÷ | 4 | × | x | = | ( | 4 | ÷ | 5 | ) | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) |
| 3 | ÷ | 4 | × | x | = | 4 | ÷ | 5 | × | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) |
3 4 | x | = | 4 5 | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) |
3 4 | x | = | 4 5 | × | 1 | ÷ | 2 |
3 4 | x | = | 2 5 |
| x | = | 2 5 | ÷ | 3 4 |
| = | 2 5 | × | 4 3 |
| x | = | 8 15 |
| x | = | 0.533333 |
