• A. Subtracyt x on both sides
• B. Subtraact 14 on both sides
• C. Divide both sides by 2
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Divide both sides by 2

To get the value of x in the equation $2x=14$, we divide both sides of the equation by 2
In doing so, we get $\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{14}{2}$
$x=7$
