| ( | 68 25 | + | x | ) | ÷ | ( | 1 | + | x | ) | = | 2 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | + | x | ) |
| ( | 68 25 | + | x | ) | = | 2 | ( | 1 | + | x | ) |
68 25 | + | x | = | 2 | ( | 1 | + | x | ) |
68 25 | + | x | = | 2 | × | 1 | + | 2 | x |
68 25 | + | x | = | 2 | + | 2 | x |
| x | − | 2 | x | = | 2 | − | 68 25 |
| - | x | = | 2 | − | 68 25 |
| - | x | = | 2 | − | 68 25 |
| - | x | = | - | 18 25 |
18 25 | = | x |
| x | = | 18 25 |
