Answer:

The right answer is - Multiplication property of equality

Explanation:

The Multiplication Property of Equality states that if we multiply both the sides of any given equation by the same number, then the sides are equal.

Here we have been given the equation:


(x)/(2) =5

Now multiplying both the sides by 2 we get


(2x)/(2)=5*2

So, we get x = 10

Therefore, Multiplication property of equality is the answer.
