| x | − | 4 | = | ( | 90 | − | x | + | 4 | ) | × | 80 100 |
| Right side of the equation = | 90 | × | 80 100 | − | x | × | 80 100 | + | 4 | × | 80 100 |
| = | 72 | − | x | × | 80 100 | + | 16 5 |
| = | 376 5 | − | 80 100 | x |
| x | − | 4 | = | 376 5 | − | 80 100 | x |
| x | + | 80 100 | x | = | 376 5 | + | 4 |
9 5 | x | = | 376 5 | + | 4 |
9 5 | x | = | 396 5 |
| x | = | 396 5 | ÷ | 9 5 |
| = | 396 5 | × | 5 9 |
| = | 44 | × | 1 |
| x | = | 44 |
