There are 2 people.

They will share 1 sandwich.

Thus, the sandwich (only 1) would be divided into 2 parts.

Each person will get 1 out of 2 parts.

We can write:

[tex]2x=1[/tex]

Where "x" is the portion of sandwich one of them get. Solving for x >>>

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x=1 \\ x=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Each gets half.
