1 8 | × | 147 50 | x | ÷ | ( | 1 8 | x | + | 147 50 | ) | − | 31 25 | = | 0 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 8 | x | + | 147 50 | ) |
1 8 | × | 147 50 | x | − | 31 25 | ( | 1 8 | x | + | 147 50 | ) | = | 0 |
1 8 | × | 147 50 | x | − | 31 25 | × | 1 8 | x | − | 31 25 | × | 147 50 | = | 0 |
147 400 | x | − | 31 200 | x | − | 4557 1250 | = | 0 |
17 80 | x | − | 4557 1250 | = | 0 |
17 80 | x | = | 0 | + | 4557 1250 |
17 80 | x | = | 4557 1250 |
| x | = | 4557 1250 | ÷ | 17 80 |
| = | 4557 1250 | × | 80 17 |
| = | 4557 125 | × | 8 17 |
| x | = | 36456 2125 |
