To use the Zero Product Property, we start with the given equation:
\[ 2 \cdot (x - 3) = 0 \]
According to the Zero Product Property, if a product is equal to zero, at least one of the factors must be equal to zero. In this case, we have:
- \( 2 \neq 0 \) (this factor cannot be zero), so we focus on the other factor:
\[ (x - 3) = 0 \]
Now we solve for \( x \):
\[ x - 3 = 0 \]
Adding 3 to both sides gives:
\[ x = 3 \]
Thus, the value of \( x \) that makes the statement true is:
\[ \boxed{3} \]
