| ( | 95 | − | X | ) | ÷ | ( | 100 | − | X | ) | = | 23 25 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 100 | − | X | ) |
| ( | 95 | − | X | ) | = | 23 25 | ( | 100 | − | X | ) |
| 95 | − | X | = | 23 25 | ( | 100 | − | X | ) |
| 95 | − | X | = | 23 25 | × | 100 | − | 23 25 | X |
| 95 | − | X | = | 92 | − | 23 25 | X |
| - | X | + | 23 25 | X | = | 92 | − | 95 |
| - | 2 25 | X | = | 92 | − | 95 |
| - | 2 25 | X | = | - | 3 |
| 3 | = | 2 25 | X |
2 25 | X | = | 3 |
| X | = | 3 | ÷ | 2 25 |
| = | 3 | × | 25 2 |
| X | = | 75 2 |
| X | = | 37.5 |
