Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The way it is written is a bit ambiguous. If you mean

(1/6)*x = 2 then your answer is correct. Multiply both left and right by 6

6*(1/6)*x = 6*2

x = 12

If however, the question meant

1/(6x) = 2 then that is a different question.

Multiply both sides by 6x

1/(6x) * 6x = 2 * 6x

1 = 12*x                      

Divide by 12

x = 1/12

Change to a decimal

x = 0.08333333

Everything depends on how it is written. Try both if you can.
