We can split up the first term on the left-hand side, \displaystyle x(x^{2}-2x), into factors by taking \displaystyle x outside the bracket, \displaystyle x(x^{2}-2x) = x\cdot x\cdot (x-2) and writing the other term as \displaystyle x\cdot (2-x) = -x(x-2). From this we see that both terms contain \displaystyle x(x-2) as common factors and, if we take out those, the left-hand side becomes
The whole equation can be written as
and this equation is satisfied only when one of the three factors \displaystyle x, \displaystyle x-2 or \displaystyle x-1 is zero, i.e. the solutions are \displaystyle x=0, \displaystyle x=2 and \displaystyle x=1.
Because it is not completely obvious that \displaystyle x=1 is a solution of the equation, we check that \displaystyle x=1 satisfies the equation, i.e. that we haven't calculated incorrectly:
- x = 1: \displaystyle \ \text{LHS} = 1\cdot (1^{2}-2\cdot 1) + 1\cdot (2-1) = 1\cdot (-1) + 1\cdot 1 = 0 = \text{RHS.}
