4 5 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | ÷ | ( | 1 | + | 16 25 | x | ) | = | 1 2 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | + | 16 25 | x | ) |
4 5 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | = | 1 2 | ( | 1 | + | 16 25 | x | ) |
4 5 | x | − | 4 5 | × | 1 | = | 1 2 | ( | 1 | + | 16 25 | x | ) |
4 5 | x | − | 4 5 | × | 1 | = | 1 2 | × | 1 | + | 1 2 | × | 16 25 | x |
4 5 | x | − | 4 5 | = | 1 2 | + | 8 25 | x |
4 5 | x | − | 8 25 | x | = | 1 2 | + | 4 5 |
12 25 | x | = | 1 2 | + | 4 5 |
12 25 | x | = | 13 10 |
| x | = | 13 10 | ÷ | 12 25 |
| = | 13 10 | × | 25 12 |
| = | 13 2 | × | 5 12 |
| x | = | 65 24 |
| x | = | 2.708333 |
