If this is what you meant then you should have used the superscipt button from the fromat heading to write the 2 OR you could write

19 halved is 9.5.
x+7=9.5.
x is 2.5.
$$\left({\mathtt{x}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\mathtt{7}}\right){\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{2}} = {\mathtt{19}} = {\mathtt{x}} = {\frac{{\mathtt{5}}}{{\mathtt{2}}}}$$
