How to divide 5x by 10

Let's write this out as a fraction with 5x as the numerator and 10 as the denominator


(5x)/(10)

10 is the same as 5*2


(5x)/(5*2)

Both the numerator have a multiply of 5, you can remove the 5 from the fraction


(x)/(2)

Let me know if you need any clarifications or if this wasn't what you needed, thanks!
