2 x = 5

$2 x = 5$

Step 1

Divide each term in

2 x = 5

$2 x = 5$ by

2

$2$ .

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

$\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{5}{2}$

Step 2.1.1

Cancel the common factor.

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

$\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{5}{2}$

Step 2.1.2

Divide

x

$x$ by

1

$1$ .

x = \frac{5}{2}

$x = \frac{5}{2}$

x = \frac{5}{2}

$x = \frac{5}{2}$

x = \frac{5}{2}

$x = \frac{5}{2}$

Step 3

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

x = \frac{5}{2}

$x = \frac{5}{2}$

Decimal Form:

x = 2.5

$x = 2.5$

Mixed Number Form:

x = 2 \frac{1}{2}

$x = 2 \frac{1}{2}$

2 x = 5

$2 x = 5$
