609 50 | x | = | ( | x | + | 7 2 | ) | × | 449 50 |
| Right side of the equation = | x | × | 449 50 | + | 7 2 | × | 449 50 |
| = | x | × | 449 50 | + | 3143 100 |
609 50 | x | = | 449 50 | x | + | 3143 100 |
609 50 | x | − | 449 50 | x | = | 3143 100 |
16 5 | x | = | 3143 100 |
| x | = | 3143 100 | ÷ | 16 5 |
| = | 3143 100 | × | 5 16 |
| = | 3143 20 | × | 1 16 |
| x | = | 3143 320 |
| x | = | 9.821875 |
