| ( | 1928 | + | X | ) | ÷ | ( | 4420 | + | X | ) | = | 11 25 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 4420 | + | X | ) |
| ( | 1928 | + | X | ) | = | 11 25 | ( | 4420 | + | X | ) |
| 1928 | + | X | = | 11 25 | ( | 4420 | + | X | ) |
| 1928 | + | X | = | 11 25 | × | 4420 | + | 11 25 | X |
| 1928 | + | X | = | 9724 5 | + | 11 25 | X |
| X | − | 11 25 | X | = | 9724 5 | − | 1928 |
14 25 | X | = | 9724 5 | − | 1928 |
14 25 | X | = | 84 5 |
| X | = | 84 5 | ÷ | 14 25 |
| = | 84 5 | × | 25 14 |
| = | 6 | × | 5 |
| X | = | 30 |
