I agree with you and would go even further, using 2x/2x.
I think everyone with any sense of algebra would intuitively say that the answer is 1. (which then says implicit multiplication has priority over division).
Otherwise, if PEDMAS is followed to the law, we would end up with x^2 which i think very very very few people would arrive at.
