43 25 | × | 98 | + | x | × | 5 2 | = | 2 | ( | 98 | + | x | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 4214 25 | + | x | × | 5 2 |
4214 25 | + | 5 2 | x | = | 2 | ( | 98 | + | x | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 2 | × | 98 | + | 2 | x |
| = | 196 | + | 2 | x |
4214 25 | + | 5 2 | x | = | 196 | + | 2 | x |
5 2 | x | − | 2 | x | = | 196 | − | 4214 25 |
1 2 | x | = | 196 | − | 4214 25 |
1 2 | x | = | 686 25 |
| x | = | 686 25 | ÷ | 1 2 |
| = | 686 25 | × | 2 |
| x | = | 1372 25 |
| x | = | 54.88 |
