89 5 | x | + | 287 10 | ( | 510 | − | x | ) | = | 131421 10 |
| Left side of the equation = | 89 5 | x | + | 287 10 | × | 510 | − | 287 10 | x |
| = | 89 5 | x | + | 14637 | − | 287 10 | x |
| = | - | 109 10 | x | + | 14637 |
| - | 109 10 | x | + | 14637 | = | 131421 10 |
| - | 109 10 | x | = | 131421 10 | − | 14637 |
| - | 109 10 | x | = | - | 14949 10 |
14949 10 | = | 109 10 | x |
109 10 | x | = | 14949 10 |
| x | = | 14949 10 | ÷ | 109 10 |
| = | 14949 10 | × | 10 109 |
| = | 14949 | × | 1 109 |
| x | = | 14949 109 |
| x | = | 137.146789 |
