36 25 | = | 21 5 | × | 278 | X | ÷ | ( | X | + | 1400 | ) |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | X | + | 1400 | ) |
36 25 | ( | X | + | 1400 | ) | = | 21 5 | × | 278 | X |
36 25 | X | + | 36 25 | × | 1400 | = | 21 5 | × | 278 | X |
36 25 | X | + | 2016 | = | 5838 5 | X |
36 25 | X | − | 5838 5 | X | = | - | 2016 |
| - | 29154 25 | X | = | - | 2016 |
| 2016 | = | 29154 25 | X |
29154 25 | X | = | 2016 |
| X | = | 2016 | ÷ | 29154 25 |
| = | 2016 | × | 25 29154 |
| = | 336 | × | 25 4859 |
| X | = | 8400 4859 |
| X | = | 1.728751 |
