A flagpole is 12 feet tall. It breaks, folding over in half, such that what was the tip of the flagpole is now dangling two feet above the ground. How far from the base, in feet, did the flagpole break? Let's think step by step and output the final answer after "####".

The break occurred (12-2)/2=5 feet from the top.
Then it was 12-5=<<12-5=7>>7 feet from the base.
