461 100 | x | + | ( | 16 | − | x | ) | × | 427 25 | = | 100 |
| Left side of the equation = | 461 100 | x | + | 16 | × | 427 25 | − | x | × | 427 25 |
| = | 461 100 | x | + | 6832 25 | − | x | × | 427 25 |
| = | - | 1247 100 | x | + | 6832 25 |
| - | 1247 100 | x | + | 6832 25 | = | 100 |
| - | 1247 100 | x | = | 100 | − | 6832 25 |
| - | 1247 100 | x | = | - | 4332 25 |
4332 25 | = | 1247 100 | x |
1247 100 | x | = | 4332 25 |
| x | = | 4332 25 | ÷ | 1247 100 |
| = | 4332 25 | × | 100 1247 |
| = | 4332 | × | 4 1247 |
| x | = | 17328 1247 |
| x | = | 13.89575 |
