I need to solve for x: Equation is X – (10% of X) = 1828?
Am I out of my mind or is this something that can be done this way?

The way to think about it is, X is the same as 100% of X. So X – (10% of X) would give you 90% of X.
Knowing this we can say 90% of X = 1828.
Then we find what 1% of X is. 1828/90=20.3111…
And then multiply this answer by 100, giving you an answer of 2031.

(1)x-(0.1)x = 1828
(0.9)x = 1828
x = 1828/(0.9)
x = 2031.1
