| ( | X | − | 5861 1000 | ) | × | 200 | − | 1 10 | = | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | X | × | 200 | − | 5861 1000 | × | 200 | − | 1 10 |
| = | X | × | 200 | − | 5861 5 | − | 1 10 |
| = | 200 | X | − | 11723 10 |
| 200 | X | − | 11723 10 | = | 5 |
| 200 | X | = | 5 | + | 11723 10 |
| 200 | X | = | 11773 10 |
| X | = | 11773 10 | ÷ | 200 |
| = | 11773 10 | × | 1 200 |
| X | = | 11773 2000 |
| X | = | 5.8865 |
