| 1 | − | 2 | x | ÷ | 6 | − | 5 | = | 3 | ÷ | 4 | − | x |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 | − | 1 3 | x | − | 5 |
| = | - | 4 | − | 1 3 | x |
| - | 4 | − | 1 3 | x | = | 3 | ÷ | 4 | − | x |
| Right side of the equation = | 3 4 | − | x |
| - | 4 | − | 1 3 | x | = | 3 4 | − | x |
| - | 1 3 | x | + | x | = | 3 4 | + | 4 |
| - | - | 2 3 | x | = | 3 4 | + | 4 |
| - | - | 2 3 | x | = | 19 4 |
| - | 19 4 | = | - | 2 3 | x |
| - | 2 3 | x | = | - | 19 4 |
| x | = | 19 4 | ÷ | 2 3 |
| = | 19 4 | × | 3 2 |
| x | = | 57 8 |
| x | = | 7.125 |
