23.50 x = 329.99 - 25.75
23.50 x = 304.24
#x = 304.24/ 23.50#
x = 12.95

Explanation:

Step 1 : Transposition

Keep the term with the variable on the left hand side.

23.50 x = 329.99 - 25.75

Step 2: Evaluate right hand side

23.50 x = 304.24

Step 3: Transposition

#x = 304.24/ 23.50#

x = 12.94638.........

Step 4: Rounding up to two decimal places

Answer : x = 12.95 (approximate)
