| 55 | ÷ | ( | 1 | + | i | ) | + | 72 | ÷ | ( | 1 | + | i | ) | × | 2 | − | 100 | = | 0 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | + | i | ) |
| 55 | + | 72 | × | 2 | − | 100 | ( | 1 | + | i | ) | = | 0 |
| 55 | + | 72 | × | 2 | − | 100 | × | 1 | − | 100 | i | = | 0 |
| 55 | + | 144 | − | 100 | − | 100 | i | = | 0 |
| 99 | − | 100 | i | = | 0 |
| - | 100 | i | = | 0 | − | 99 |
| - | 100 | i | = | - | 99 |
| 99 | = | 100 | i |
| 100 | i | = | 99 |
| i | = | 99 | ÷ | 100 |
| = | 99 | × | 1 100 |
| i | = | 99 100 |
| i | = | 0.99 |
