Combine like terms on the left side of the equation. Add 4 and 2 and subtract x and 2x. After combining like terms you should get: 6 - x = 5.
Subtract 6 from both sides to isolate x. Now you have: -x = -1. Make x into a positive by dividing both sides by -1. You are correct - the answer is x = 1.

Given that the US population is approximately 308,000,000 in 2010 and that 6.5% of this population is under 5 years of age, we will know that number of children by multiplying 6.5% by 308,000,000. So the answer would be 20,020,000. So that is the number of children below 5 years old. Hope this helps.
