| 49 | ÷ | 29 | × | ( | 5 | − | x | ) | = | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 49 29 | ( | 5 | − | x | ) |
49 29 | ( | 5 | − | x | ) | = | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 49 29 | × | 5 | − | 49 29 | x |
| = | 245 29 | − | 49 29 | x |
245 29 | − | 49 29 | x | = | x |
| - | 49 29 | x | − | x | = | - | 245 29 |
| - | 78 29 | x | = | - | 245 29 |
245 29 | = | 78 29 | x |
78 29 | x | = | 245 29 |
| x | = | 245 29 | ÷ | 78 29 |
| = | 245 29 | × | 29 78 |
| = | 245 | × | 1 78 |
| x | = | 245 78 |
| x | = | 3.141026 |
