| 600 | × | 9 10 | + | 4 5 | ( | x | − | 600 | ) | = | 584 |
| Left side of the equation = | 540 | + | 4 5 | ( | x | − | 600 | ) |
| 540 | + | 4 5 | ( | x | − | 600 | ) | = | 584 |
| Left side of the equation = | 540 | + | 4 5 | x | − | 4 5 | × | 600 |
| = | 540 | + | 4 5 | x | − | 480 |
| = | 60 | + | 4 5 | x |
| 60 | + | 4 5 | x | = | 584 |
4 5 | x | = | 584 | − | 60 |
4 5 | x | = | 524 |
| x | = | 524 | ÷ | 4 5 |
| = | 524 | × | 5 4 |
| = | 131 | × | 5 |
| x | = | 655 |
