| 300 | ( | x | − | 360 | ) | = | 366 | ( | x | − | 552 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 300 | x | − | 300 | × | 360 |
| = | 300 | x | − | 108000 |
| 300 | x | − | 108000 | = | 366 | ( | x | − | 552 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 366 | x | − | 366 | × | 552 |
| = | 366 | x | − | 202032 |
| 300 | x | − | 108000 | = | 366 | x | − | 202032 |
| 300 | x | − | 366 | x | = | - | 202032 | + | 108000 |
| - | 66 | x | = | - | 202032 | + | 108000 |
| - | 66 | x | = | - | 94032 |
| 94032 | = | 66 | x |
| 66 | x | = | 94032 |
| x | = | 94032 | ÷ | 66 |
| = | 94032 | × | 1 66 |
| = | 15672 | × | 1 11 |
| x | = | 15672 11 |
| x | = | 1424.727273 |
