How can I make x/2 a variable, or solve for x/2

How can I make x/2 a variable, or solve for x/2

Hello,

I would like to make

x/2

a variable. In otherwords, I want to solve for:

x/2 := A + 2B

Where A and B are known.

Mathcad will only let me solve for x, not x/2.

Is there a way I can do this?

x Shift+Ctrl+k /2 Shift+Ctrl+k : A+2*B (Mathcad 15)

Thanks! This saves me a lot of time and space.

Last question:

How do I do:

2X = A+B

shift+ctrl+k doesnt seem to work with this one.

I think not last

X Shift+Ctrl+k <- 2 Shift+Ctrl+k

hmm, that doesn't seem to work in MathCAD 14. I typed in

x shift+ctrl+k <- 2 shift+ctrl+k and I got

x<-2 := A+B

Use please space before 2

But!
