| x | × | 28 | + | ( | 3 10 | − | x | ) | × | 44 | = | 14 |
| Left side of the equation = | 28 | x | + | 3 10 | × | 44 | − | x | × | 44 |
| = | 28 | x | + | 66 5 | − | x | × | 44 |
| = | - | 16 | x | + | 66 5 |
| - | 16 | x | + | 66 5 | = | 14 |
| - | 16 | x | = | 14 | − | 66 5 |
| - | 16 | x | = | 4 5 |
| - | 4 5 | = | 16 | x |
| 16 | x | = | - | 4 5 |
| x | = | - | 4 5 | ÷ | 16 |
| = | - | 4 5 | × | 1 16 |
| = | - | 1 5 | × | 1 4 |
| x | = | - | 1 20 |
| x | = | - 0.05 |
