| ( | 25 | − | 6 5 | x | ) | ÷ | x | = | 25 | ÷ | ( | 3 | x | ) |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x | , | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) |
| ( | 25 | − | 6 5 | x | ) | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | = | 25 | × | 1 |
| 25 | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | − | 6 5 | x | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | = | 25 | × | 1 |
| 25 | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | − | 6 5 | x | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | = | 25 |
| 25 | × | 3 | × | 1 | − | 6 5 | x | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | = | 25 |
| 75 | − | 6 5 | x | ( | 3 | × | 1 | ) | = | 25 |
| 75 | − | 6 5 | x | × | 3 | × | 1 | = | 25 |
| 75 | − | 18 5 | x | = | 25 |
| - | 18 5 | x | = | 25 | − | 75 |
| - | 18 5 | x | = | - | 50 |
| 50 | = | 18 5 | x |
18 5 | x | = | 50 |
| x | = | 50 | ÷ | 18 5 |
| = | 50 | × | 5 18 |
| = | 25 | × | 5 9 |
| x | = | 125 9 |
| x | = | 13.888889 |
