| x | + | 12 | = | ( | x | x | − | 12 | ) | ( | x | x | − | 12 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | x | x | ( | x | x | − | 12 | ) | − | 12 | ( | x | x | − | 12 | ) |
| = | x | x | x | x | − | x | x | × | 12 | − | 12 | ( | x | x | − | 12 | ) |
| = | x | x | x | x | − | x | x | × | 12 | − | 12 | x | x | + | 12 | × | 12 |
| = | x | x | x | x | − | x | x | × | 12 | − | 12 | x | x | + | 144 |
| x | + | 12 | = | x | x | x | x | − | x | x | × | 12 | − | 12 | x | x | + | 144 |
