| ( | 1 | − | x | ) | ÷ | ( | 2 | + | 2 | x | ) | = | 3 10 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 2 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| ( | 1 | − | x | ) | = | 3 10 | ( | 2 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| 1 | − | x | = | 3 10 | ( | 2 | + | 2 | x | ) |
| 1 | − | x | = | 3 10 | × | 2 | + | 3 10 | × | 2 | x |
| 1 | − | x | = | 3 5 | + | 3 5 | x |
| - | x | − | 3 5 | x | = | 3 5 | − | 1 |
| - | 8 5 | x | = | 3 5 | − | 1 |
| - | 8 5 | x | = | - | 2 5 |
2 5 | = | 8 5 | x |
8 5 | x | = | 2 5 |
| x | = | 2 5 | ÷ | 8 5 |
| = | 2 5 | × | 5 8 |
| = | 1 | × | 1 4 |
| x | = | 1 4 |
| x | = | 0.25 |
