8 100 | = | x | + | 4 5 | ( | 9 100 | − | x | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | x | + | 4 5 | × | 9 100 | − | 4 5 | x |
| = | x | + | 9 125 | − | 4 5 | x |
| = | 1 5 | x | + | 9 125 |
8 100 | = | 1 5 | x | + | 9 125 |
| - | 1 5 | x | = | 9 125 | − | 8 100 |
| - | 1 5 | x | = | - | 1 125 |
1 125 | = | 1 5 | x |
1 5 | x | = | 1 125 |
| x | = | 1 125 | ÷ | 1 5 |
| = | 1 125 | × | 5 |
| = | 1 25 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 1 25 |
| x | = | 0.04 |
