Best Answer

18 = x/2

We are trying to end up with just a variable (x) on one side of the equation.

Step 1: multiply both sides of the equation by 2 (we must do exactly the same to both sides of the equation so that it remains equal), which gives:

36 = x, which I will rewrite as x = 36 (as this reads a little better).

And in this question this is the only step required.
