| 100 | + | x | = | ( | 170 | + | x | ) | × | 309 500 |
| Right side of the equation = | 170 | × | 309 500 | + | x | × | 309 500 |
| = | 5253 50 | + | x | × | 309 500 |
| 100 | + | x | = | 5253 50 | + | 309 500 | x |
| x | − | 309 500 | x | = | 5253 50 | − | 100 |
191 500 | x | = | 5253 50 | − | 100 |
191 500 | x | = | 253 50 |
| x | = | 253 50 | ÷ | 191 500 |
| = | 253 50 | × | 500 191 |
| = | 253 | × | 10 191 |
| x | = | 2530 191 |
| x | = | 13.246073 |
