Question
$$2x\cdot4 = 2x\cdot4$$
Answer
The equation has an infinite number of solutions.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 2x\cdot4 &= 2x\cdot4&& \text{move the $ \color{blue}{ 8x } $ to the left side} \\[1 em]8x-8x &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]8x-8x &= 0&& \\[1 em]0 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{blue}{ 0 = 0 } $ is TRUE for any value of $ x $, we conclude that the equation has infinitely many solutions.
