| ( | 526 | − | X | ) | ÷ | X | = | 479 250 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | X |
| ( | 526 | − | X | ) | = | 479 250 | X |
| 526 | − | X | = | 479 250 | X |
| - | X | − | 479 250 | X | = | - | 526 |
| - | 729 250 | X | = | - | 526 |
| 526 | = | 729 250 | X |
729 250 | X | = | 526 |
| X | = | 526 | ÷ | 729 250 |
| = | 526 | × | 250 729 |
| X | = | 131500 729 |
| X | = | 180.384088 |
