| 2 | ( | 14509 | + | 370 | x | ) | = | 3830 | + | 1000 | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | × | 14509 | + | 2 | × | 370 | x |
| = | 29018 | + | 740 | x |
| 29018 | + | 740 | x | = | 3830 | + | 1000 | x |
| 740 | x | − | 1000 | x | = | 3830 | − | 29018 |
| - | 260 | x | = | 3830 | − | 29018 |
| - | 260 | x | = | - | 25188 |
| 25188 | = | 260 | x |
| 260 | x | = | 25188 |
| x | = | 25188 | ÷ | 260 |
| = | 25188 | × | 1 260 |
| = | 6297 | × | 1 65 |
| x | = | 6297 65 |
| x | = | 96.876923 |
