$$\frac{ 65 }{ 6.5 } = \frac{ 2 }{ x }$$

Solve for x

$$x=0.2$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$x\times \frac{65}{6.5}=2$$

Expand \frac{65}{6.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$x\times \frac{650}{65}=2$$

Divide 650 by 65 to get 10.

$$x\times 10=2$$

Divide both sides by 10.

$$x=\frac{2}{10}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=\frac{1}{5}$$
