How do you solve x equals 2?

Answer 1

When you 'solve' an equation, what you wind up with is the value for 'x' that makes

the equation a true statement. When you write the solution down on paper, it says:

"X equals ...".

There's no question, puzzle, riddle, or mystery in your question. Nothing about it is

unknown. In fact, it's not a question at all. It's a statement. It tells us that "X is the

number 2."

Your "question" looks exactly like a solution, and there's nothing to it that needs solving.
