| x | ÷ | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | − | 3 | ÷ | x | = | 1 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | x | − | 1 | ) |
| x | − | 3 | ÷ | x | × | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | = | 1 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) |
| x | − | 3 | ÷ | x | × | x | + | 3 | ÷ | x | × | 1 | = | 1 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) |
| x | − | 3 | ÷ | x | × | x | + | 3 | ÷ | x | × | 1 | = | 1 | x | − | 1 | × | 1 |
| x | − | 3 | ÷ | x | × | x | + | 3 | ÷ | x | = | 1 | x | − | 1 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x |
| x | x | − | 3 | ÷ | 1 | × | 1 | x | + | 3 | = | 1 | x | x | − | 1 | x |
