You can put this solution on YOUR website! Just do what it says:
A number = x
:
what is a number plus a number
2x
:
divided by a number
(2x)/x
:
subtracted by a number
[2x/x] - x
:
then added by a number
[2x/x] - x + x
:
2x/x = 2; and -x + x is 0 so you end up with 2, it doesn't matter what the number is.
