33 10 | ÷ | ( | 75 | + | x | ) | × | x | = | 33 40 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | ( | 75 | + | x | ) |
33 10 | x | = | 33 40 | ( | 75 | + | x | ) |
33 10 | x | = | 33 40 | × | 75 | + | 33 40 | x |
33 10 | x | = | 495 8 | + | 33 40 | x |
33 10 | x | − | 33 40 | x | = | 495 8 |
99 40 | x | = | 495 8 |
| x | = | 495 8 | ÷ | 99 40 |
| = | 495 8 | × | 40 99 |
| = | 5 | × | 5 |
| x | = | 25 |
