| ( | 200 | − | 1100 | ) | ÷ | ( | 1 | + | ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | ) | = | x |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | + | ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | ) |
| ( | 200 | − | 1100 | ) | = | x | ( | 1 | + | ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | ) |
| 200 | − | 1100 | = | x | ( | 1 | + | ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) | ) |
| 200 | − | 1100 | = | x | × | 1 | + | x | ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) |
| - | 900 | = | 1 | x | + | x | ( | 3 | ÷ | 4 | ) |
| - | 900 | = | 1 | x | + | x | × | 3 | ÷ | 4 |
| - | 900 | = | 1 | x | + | x | × | 3 4 |
| - | 900 | = | 7 4 | x |
| - | 7 4 | x | = | 900 |
| - | 900 | = | 7 4 | x |
7 4 | x | = | - | 900 |
| x | = | - | 900 | ÷ | 7 4 |
| = | - | 900 | × | 4 7 |
| x | = | - | 3600 7 |
| x | = | - 514.285714 |
