| 180 | ÷ | x | = | 180 | ÷ | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | + | 6 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x | , | ( | x | − | 1 | ) |
| 180 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | = | 180 | x | + | 6 | x | ( | x | − | 1 | ) |
| 180 | x | − | 180 | × | 1 | = | 180 | x | + | 6 | x | ( | x | − | 1 | ) |
| 180 | x | − | 180 | × | 1 | = | 180 | x | + | 6 | x | x | − | 6 | x | × | 1 |
| 180 | x | − | 180 | = | 180 | x | + | 6 | x | x | − | 6 | x |
| 180 | x | − | 180 | = | 174 | x | + | 6 | x | x |
