Suppose your list is called 'alist', then the following will do the task: Cases[alist, Rule[x_,y_]->y/2,8] {-2.32422, -2.2271, -2.12914, -2.03027, -1.9303, -1.82906, -1.72629, \ -1.62162, -1.51458, -1.40451, -1.29053, -1.17153, -1.04626, -0.91365, \ -0.773295, -0.626175, -0.476266, -0.33392, -0.217138, -0.135373, -0.076033} Cheers, Brian Trinanjan Datta wrote: > How do I extract the x values from the following list and divide them > by 2: > > {{120.664, {x -> -4.64844}}, { > 118.131, {x -> -4.4542}}, {115.479, {x -> -4.25828}}, { > 112.697, {x -> -4.06053}}, {109.766, {x -> -3.8606}}, { > 106.666, {x -> -3.65812}}, { > 103.372, {x -> -3.45257}}, {99.8501, {x -> -3.24323}}, { > 96.0571, {x -> -3.02915}}, { > 91.9343, {x -> -2.80902}}, {87.3996, {x -> -2.58106}}, { > 82.3355, {x -> -2.34305}}, {76.5712, {x -> -2.09251}}, { > 69.8594, {x -> -1.8273}}, {61.8567, {x -> -1.54659}}, { > 52.1348, {x -> -1.25235}}, {40.3287, {x -> -0.952531}}, { > 26.7404, {x -> -0.66784}}, {13.703, {x -> -0.434276}}, { > 5.08285, {x -> -0.270745}}, {1.45243, {x -> -0.152066}}}
