| 1 | + | ( | x | − | 3 | ) | ÷ | 3 | = | ( | 3 | x | + | 2 | ) | ÷ | 4 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 | + | x | × | 1 3 | − | 3 | × | 1 3 |
| = | 1 | + | x | × | 1 3 | − | 1 |
| = | 0 | + | 1 3 | x |
| 0 | + | 1 3 | x | = | ( | 3 | x | + | 2 | ) | ÷ | 4 |
| Right side of the equation = | 3 | x | × | 1 4 | + | 2 | × | 1 4 |
| = | 3 4 | x | + | 1 2 |
1 3 | x | = | 3 4 | x | + | 1 2 |
1 3 | x | − | 3 4 | x | = | 1 2 |
| - | 5 12 | x | = | 1 2 |
| - | 1 2 | = | 5 12 | x |
5 12 | x | = | - | 1 2 |
| x | = | - | 1 2 | ÷ | 5 12 |
| = | - | 1 2 | × | 12 5 |
| = | - | 1 | × | 6 5 |
| x | = | - | 6 5 |
| x | = | - 1.2 |
