1 5 | x | − | 3 | = | 4 | ÷ | 3 | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | × | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 4 3 | + | 1 3 | x |
1 5 | x | − | 3 | = | 4 3 | + | 1 3 | x |
1 5 | x | − | 1 3 | x | = | 4 3 | + | 3 |
| - | 2 15 | x | = | 4 3 | + | 3 |
| - | 2 15 | x | = | 13 3 |
| - | 13 3 | = | 2 15 | x |
2 15 | x | = | - | 13 3 |
| x | = | - | 13 3 | ÷ | 2 15 |
| = | - | 13 3 | × | 15 2 |
| = | - | 13 | × | 5 2 |
| x | = | - | 65 2 |
| x | = | - 32.5 |
