| ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) | x | − | 1 | ÷ | 2 | + | 1 | ÷ | 3 | = | 4 | ÷ | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) | x | − | 1 2 | + | 1 3 |
| = | ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) | x | − | 1 6 |
| ( | 1 | ÷ | 2 | ) | x | − | 1 6 | = | 4 | ÷ | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 | ÷ | 2 | × | x | − | 1 6 |
| = | 1 2 | x | − | 1 6 |
1 2 | x | − | 1 6 | = | 4 | ÷ | 5 |
| Right side of the equation = | 4 5 |
1 2 | x | − | 1 6 | = | 4 5 |
1 2 | x | = | 4 5 | + | 1 6 |
1 2 | x | = | 29 30 |
| x | = | 29 30 | ÷ | 1 2 |
| = | 29 30 | × | 2 |
| = | 29 15 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 29 15 |
| x | = | 1.933333 |
