| 2 | ( | x | + | 3 | ) | = | 5 2 | ( | x | − | 3 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | x | + | 2 | × | 3 |
| = | 2 | x | + | 6 |
| 2 | x | + | 6 | = | 5 2 | ( | x | − | 3 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 2 | x | − | 5 2 | × | 3 |
| = | 5 2 | x | − | 15 2 |
| 2 | x | + | 6 | = | 5 2 | x | − | 15 2 |
| 2 | x | − | 5 2 | x | = | - | 15 2 | − | 6 |
| - | 1 2 | x | = | - | 15 2 | − | 6 |
| - | 1 2 | x | = | - | 27 2 |
27 2 | = | 1 2 | x |
1 2 | x | = | 27 2 |
| x | = | 27 2 | ÷ | 1 2 |
| = | 27 2 | × | 2 |
| = | 27 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 27 |
