Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to find the value of x.

12 divided by 2 = 2x divided by 2
? = ?

1 answer

To solve the equation \( 12 \div 2 = 2x \div 2 \), we can proceed as follows:

  1. Divide both sides by 2: \[ 12 \div 2 = 2x \div 2 \]

  2. Simplifying both sides: \[ 6 = x \]

So, the solution is: \[ x = 6 \]
