Hi Ashley,

x=6
-----------------------------
Check by substituting 6 in where your x is and see if both sides of the equation are equal:

2=2
Yippee!!!! We're Right!!!!
Happy Calculating!!!!

x/3 = 2
Multiply both sides by 3 to get:
x=6
Proof:
Substitute 6 in place of "x" and see if you get a true statement.
6/3=2
2=2
It is true.
That means your solution , x=6, is a good solution.
Cheers,
Stan H.
