| x | × | 560 | ÷ | ( | x | + | 560 | ) | = | 142 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | + | 560 | ) |
| x | × | 560 | = | 142 | ( | x | + | 560 | ) |
| x | × | 560 | = | 142 | x | + | 142 | × | 560 |
| x | × | 560 | = | 142 | x | + | 79520 |
| 560 | x | − | 142 | x | = | 79520 |
| 418 | x | = | 79520 |
| x | = | 79520 | ÷ | 418 |
| = | 79520 | × | 1 418 |
| = | 39760 | × | 1 209 |
| x | = | 39760 209 |
| x | = | 190.239234 |
