Certainly! Let's solve the equation step-by-step.
We are given the equation:
[tex]\[ 2 \times \text{?} = 10 \][/tex]
We need to find the value that, when multiplied by 2, results in 10. To do this, we will isolate the unknown number on one side of the equation. Here's how we can do it:
1. Start with the equation:
[tex]\[ 2 \times \text{?} = 10 \][/tex]
2. To isolate the unknown number, we divide both sides of the equation by 2:
[tex]\[ \frac{2 \times \text{?}}{2} = \frac{10}{2} \][/tex]
3. Simplifying both sides:
[tex]\[ \text{?} = \frac{10}{2} \][/tex]
4. Divide 10 by 2:
[tex]\[ \text{?} = 5 \][/tex]
So, the number we are looking for is 5.
