| Y | = | 100 | + | 9 10 | ( | Y | − | 1 5 | Y | ) | + | 300 | + | 300 |
| Right side of the equation = | 700 | + | 9 10 | ( | Y | − | 1 5 | Y | ) |
| Y | = | 700 | + | 9 10 | ( | Y | − | 1 5 | Y | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 700 | + | 9 10 | Y | − | 9 10 | × | 1 5 | Y |
| = | 700 | + | 9 10 | Y | − | 9 50 | Y |
| = | 700 | + | 18 25 | Y |
| Y | = | 700 | + | 18 25 | Y |
| Y | − | 18 25 | Y | = | 700 |
7 25 | Y | = | 700 |
| Y | = | 700 | ÷ | 7 25 |
| = | 700 | × | 25 7 |
| = | 100 | × | 25 |
| Y | = | 2500 |
