| ( | 1843 10 | + | 31 10 | x | ) | = | 3 | × | 519 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1843 10 | + | 31 10 | x |
1843 10 | + | 31 10 | x | = | 3 | × | 519 5 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1557 5 |
1843 10 | + | 31 10 | x | = | 1557 5 |
31 10 | x | = | 1557 5 | − | 1843 10 |
31 10 | x | = | 1271 10 |
| x | = | 1271 10 | ÷ | 31 10 |
| = | 1271 10 | × | 10 31 |
| = | 41 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 41 |
