| x | ÷ | 28 | + | ( | 14 | − | x | ) | ÷ | 44 | = | 168 25 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 28 | x | + | 14 | × | 1 44 | − | x | × | 1 44 |
| = | 1 28 | x | + | 7 22 | − | x | × | 1 44 |
| = | 1 77 | x | + | 7 22 |
1 77 | x | + | 7 22 | = | 168 25 |
1 77 | x | = | 168 25 | − | 7 22 |
1 77 | x | = | 3521 550 |
| x | = | 3521 550 | ÷ | 1 77 |
| = | 3521 550 | × | 77 |
| = | 3521 50 | × | 7 |
| x | = | 24647 50 |
| x | = | 492.94 |
