| ( | 3 | x | + | 60 | ) | ÷ | ( | 5 | x | − | 60 | ) | = | 9 | ÷ | 11 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 5 | x | − | 60 | ) |
| ( | 3 | x | + | 60 | ) | = | 9 | ÷ | 11 | × | ( | 5 | x | − | 60 | ) |
| 3 | x | + | 60 | = | 9 | ÷ | 11 | × | ( | 5 | x | − | 60 | ) |
| 3 | x | + | 60 | = | 9 | ÷ | 11 | × | 5 | x | − | 9 | ÷ | 11 | × | 60 |
| 3 | x | + | 60 | = | 45 11 | x | − | 540 11 |
| 3 | x | − | 45 11 | x | = | - | 540 11 | − | 60 |
| - | 12 11 | x | = | - | 540 11 | − | 60 |
| - | 12 11 | x | = | - | 1200 11 |
1200 11 | = | 12 11 | x |
12 11 | x | = | 1200 11 |
| x | = | 1200 11 | ÷ | 12 11 |
| = | 1200 11 | × | 11 12 |
| = | 100 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 100 |
