| 2 | x | + | 1 100 | × | 3 | = | 1 | − | x | − | 1 100 | × | 5 |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | x | + | 3 100 |
| 2 | x | + | 3 100 | = | 1 | − | x | − | 1 100 | × | 5 |
| Right side of the equation = | 1 | − | x | − | 1 20 |
| = | 19 20 | − | x |
| 2 | x | + | 3 100 | = | 19 20 | − | x |
| 2 | x | + | x | = | 19 20 | − | 3 100 |
| 3 | x | = | 19 20 | − | 3 100 |
| 3 | x | = | 23 25 |
| x | = | 23 25 | ÷ | 3 |
| = | 23 25 | × | 1 3 |
| x | = | 23 75 |
| x | = | 0.306667 |
