80 100 | ( | 80 100 | x | − | 20 | ) | + | 20 | + | 68 | = | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 80 100 | ( | 80 100 | x | − | 20 | ) | + | 88 |
80 100 | ( | 80 100 | x | − | 20 | ) | + | 88 | = | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 80 100 | × | 80 100 | x | − | 80 100 | × | 20 | + | 88 |
| = | 16 25 | x | − | 16 | + | 88 |
| = | 16 25 | x | + | 72 |
16 25 | x | + | 72 | = | x |
16 25 | x | − | x | = | - | 72 |
| - | 9 25 | x | = | - | 72 |
| 72 | = | 9 25 | x |
9 25 | x | = | 72 |
| x | = | 72 | ÷ | 9 25 |
| = | 72 | × | 25 9 |
| = | 8 | × | 25 |
| x | = | 200 |
