\boxed{x = 20}

There is only one step to this equation. We use inverse operations to isolate the x by dividing 2 on both sides; because 2 is being multiplied by x, and the inverse operation for multiplication is division.

2x/2 = x

40/2 = 20

The equation now looks like:

x = 20

This is your answer.
