| x | = | ( | x | × | 7 | + | 42189 | ) | ÷ | 20 | − | 709 |
| Right side of the equation = | x | × | 7 | × | 1 20 | + | 42189 | × | 1 20 | − | 709 |
| = | x | × | 7 20 | + | 42189 20 | − | 709 |
| = | 7 20 | x | + | 28009 20 |
| x | = | 7 20 | x | + | 28009 20 |
| x | − | 7 20 | x | = | 28009 20 |
13 20 | x | = | 28009 20 |
| x | = | 28009 20 | ÷ | 13 20 |
| = | 28009 20 | × | 20 13 |
| = | 28009 | × | 1 13 |
| x | = | 28009 13 |
| x | = | 2154.538462 |
