Observe that the first equation (<math>\ell_{1,1} x_1 = b_1</math>) only involves <math>x_1</math>, and thus one can solve for <math>x_1</math> directly. The second equation only involves <math>x_1</math> and <math>x_2</math>, and thus can be solved once one substitutes in the already solved value for <math>x_1</math>. Continuing in this way, the <math>k</math>-th equation only involves <math>x_1,\dots,x_k</math>, and one can solve for <math>x_k</math> using the previously solved values for <math>x_1,\dots,x_{k-1}</math>. The resulting formulas are:
:<math>\begin{align}
x_1 &= \frac{b_1}{\ell_{1,1}}, \\
