You can put this solution on YOUR website! find x in this equation:
1,000,000 * (0.003198+0.003420) = X +(1-0.003198)
Sol'n:
6,618 = x + 0.996802
x = 6,618 - 0.996802
x = 6,617.003198 ---answer

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1,000,000 * (0.003198+0.003420) = X +(1-0.003198)X
First, we use the order of operations (aka PEMDAS) to simplify each side of the equation. Use your calculator to simplify the left side and the expression in the parentheses on the right side:
6.618 = X + 0.996802X
Now add the two terms on the right side:
6.618 = 1.996802X
And then divide by 1.996802:
which simplifies to:
3.3142995650044421 = X
