| x | ÷ | ( | 1 | − | x | ) | ÷ | ( | 2 | − | x | ) | = | 1 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 1 | − | x | ) |
| x | ÷ | ( | 2 | − | x | ) | = | 1 | ( | 1 | − | x | ) |
| x | ÷ | ( | 2 | − | x | ) | = | 1 | × | 1 | − | 1 | x |
| x | ÷ | ( | 2 | − | x | ) | = | 1 | − | 1 | x |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 2 | − | x | ) |
| x | = | 1 | ( | 2 | − | x | ) | − | 1 | x | ( | 2 | − | x | ) |
| x | = | 1 | × | 2 | − | 1 | x | − | 1 | x | ( | 2 | − | x | ) |
| x | = | 2 | − | 1 | x | − | 1 | x | ( | 2 | − | x | ) |
| x | = | 2 | − | 1 | x | − | 1 | x | × | 2 | + | 1 | x | x |
| x | = | 2 | − | 1 | x | − | 2 | x | + | 1 | x | x |
