How to get only the x component of a b2.body's position?

Hello everyone,
I'm new here and this is my first post. I'm new to Gideros and Lua too. My question is, I couldn't manage to get the x component of b2.body's position. I tried body:getPosition(), it gives something like this (x, y), I also tried body:getPosition():x, body:getPosition:getX(), none of them worked. Thanks in advance.

you know that you can use local x, y = body:getPosition() and then use the value that you want.

did you also try body:getX() instead of body:getPosition():getX() ?

local x,y = body:getPosition()

it is the only on way to get the x and y value from physics body

That's more than enough, thank you.
