x * 1/(2x) = x/(2x) = 1/2
The varying answers you’re recieving are due to the amgibuous way of reading 1/2x. It can be read as 1/(2x) or (1/2)*x
x * (1/2)x = (1/2)x^2
1/2
You devide the x with the other x.
Imagine that the x= 5 for example, the result would be 5 (1) / 5 (2) .. the 5 goes away with the other 5 and the result is 1/2.
My question would be “What is 1/2x?”
Is it meant to be :-
(i) (1/2) x ?
OR is it meant to be
(ii) 1/(2x) ?
(i)
x (1/2) x = x ² / 2
(ii)
x [ 1/(2x) ] = x / (2x) = 1/2
PS
You MUST use brackets.
