Madilyn Payne · Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:6 + x/2 = 8

6-6 + x/2 = 8-6

x/2 = 2

x/2 (2) = (2) 2

x=4

Marie Patton · Answer 2

Let number=x

(X/2) + 6=8

First subtract 6 on each side to isolate X on one side.

(X/2) = 2

Now to fully isolate X by itself, just multiply 2 on each side.

X=4
