| ( | 3 | x | − | 2 | ) | ÷ | ( | 2 | x | + | 5 | ) | = | 2 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 2 | x | + | 5 | ) |
| ( | 3 | x | − | 2 | ) | = | 2 | ( | 2 | x | + | 5 | ) |
| 3 | x | − | 2 | = | 2 | ( | 2 | x | + | 5 | ) |
| 3 | x | − | 2 | = | 2 | × | 2 | x | + | 2 | × | 5 |
| 3 | x | − | 2 | = | 4 | x | + | 10 |
| 3 | x | − | 4 | x | = | 10 | + | 2 |
| - | x | = | 10 | + | 2 |
| - | x | = | 10 | + | 2 |
| - | x | = | 12 |
| - | 12 | = | x |
| x | = | - | 12 |
