Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this equation, since x is being divided by 2, in order to get x by itself, we need to multiply by 2 on both sides of the equation.

On the left side of the equation, the 2's cancel and we have x and on the right side of the equation, 6 × 2 gives us 12 so we have x = 12 which is the solution for our equation.

To check our solution, we plug 12 in for x in the original equation.
