| ( | x | + | 1 | ) | ÷ | ( | 1 | − | 4 | x | ) | = | 2 | ÷ | 3 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | − | 4 | x | ) |
| ( | x | + | 1 | ) | = | 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | ( | 1 | − | 4 | x | ) |
| x | + | 1 | = | 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | ( | 1 | − | 4 | x | ) |
| x | + | 1 | = | 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | 1 | − | 2 | ÷ | 3 | × | 4 | x |
| x | + | 1 | = | 2 3 | − | 8 3 | x |
| x | + | 8 3 | x | = | 2 3 | − | 1 |
11 3 | x | = | 2 3 | − | 1 |
11 3 | x | = | - | 1 3 |
| x | = | - | 1 3 | ÷ | 11 3 |
| = | - | 1 3 | × | 3 11 |
| = | - | 1 | × | 1 11 |
| x | = | - | 1 11 |
| x | = | - 0.090909 |
