| ( | 643 | + | x | ) | × | 24 5 | = | 5 | x | + | 643 | × | 47 10 |
| Left side of the equation = | 643 | × | 24 5 | + | x | × | 24 5 |
| = | 15432 5 | + | x | × | 24 5 |
15432 5 | + | 24 5 | x | = | 5 | x | + | 643 | × | 47 10 |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 | x | + | 30221 10 |
15432 5 | + | 24 5 | x | = | 5 | x | + | 30221 10 |
24 5 | x | − | 5 | x | = | 30221 10 | − | 15432 5 |
| - | 1 5 | x | = | 30221 10 | − | 15432 5 |
| - | 1 5 | x | = | - | 643 10 |
643 10 | = | 1 5 | x |
1 5 | x | = | 643 10 |
| x | = | 643 10 | ÷ | 1 5 |
| = | 643 10 | × | 5 |
| = | 643 2 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 643 2 |
