c\times 2\times \frac{2}{c}=2ac
Variable a cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by ac, the least common multiple of a,c.
\frac{c\times 2}{c}\times 2=2ac
Express c\times \frac{2}{c} as a single fraction.
2\times 2=2ac
Cancel out c in both numerator and denominator.
4=2ac
Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.
2ac=4
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2ca=4
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2ca}{2c}=\frac{4}{2c}
Divide both sides by 2c.
a=\frac{4}{2c}
Dividing by 2c undoes the multiplication by 2c.
a=\frac{2}{c}
Divide 4 by 2c.
a=\frac{2}{c}\text{, }a\neq 0
Variable a cannot be equal to 0.
