| x | − | 1 | ÷ | 6 | × | x | = | 130 | − | x | + | 1 | ÷ | 6 | × | x |
| Left side of the equation = | x | − | 1 6 | x |
| = | 5 6 | x |
5 6 | x | = | 130 | − | x | + | 1 | ÷ | 6 | × | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 130 | − | x | + | 1 6 | x |
| = | 130 | − | 5 6 | x |
5 6 | x | = | 130 | − | 5 6 | x |
5 6 | x | + | 5 6 | x | = | 130 |
5 3 | x | = | 130 |
| x | = | 130 | ÷ | 5 3 |
| = | 130 | × | 3 5 |
| = | 26 | × | 3 |
| x | = | 78 |
