| x | − | 3 | ÷ | 1 | × | x | − | 50 | = | 4 | ÷ | 1 | × | x |
| Left side of the equation = | x | − | 3 | x | − | 50 |
| = | - | 2 | x | − | 50 |
| - | 2 | x | − | 50 | = | 4 | ÷ | 1 | × | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 4 | x |
| - | 2 | x | − | 50 | = | 4 | x |
| - | 2 | x | − | 4 | x | = | 50 |
| - | 6 | x | = | 50 |
| - | 50 | = | 6 | x |
| 6 | x | = | - | 50 |
| x | = | - | 50 | ÷ | 6 |
| = | - | 50 | × | 1 6 |
| = | - | 25 | × | 1 3 |
| x | = | - | 25 3 |
| x | = | - 8.333333 |
