hlo there is a huge concept behind glycolysis but I will help u by knowing little bit about it
“glycolysis” il ‘Glycolysis is the anaerobic process in which one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) is oxidised to produce 2 molecules of pycuvic acid.’ The molecules of pyruvic acid can further engage in Kreb’s Cycle, or fermentation.

To have the process further explained:

Glucose→2 Phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL)→2 Pyruvic Acid

The process produces 4 Adenine Triphosphate (ATP) and 2 NADHs, and uses 2 ATPs.

So the net production is 2 ATPs and 2 NADHs.

glycolysis is a effective pathway to yield energy without any intakes of oxygen. This property has made it popular when organisms firstly emerged on E
arth, since little oxygen was there in atmosphere by that time. However, glycolysis is not efficient: it yields too few ATPs.

I will add more information about glycolysis by pasting
so,
Glycolysis starts off with a molecule of glucose, which is phosphorylated by ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which causes the glucose to change chemically into a molecule of hexose phosphate. Glucose has six carbon molecules hence 'hexose.' Glucose needs to be phosphorylated twice by ATP in order to form hexose phosphate. The resulting molecule is now more reactive, meaning that the activation energy or 'Ea' is now reduced.
The process of phosphorylation causes ATP to change into ADP and Pi.

The hexose phosphate then dissociates into two molecules of triose phosphate. Triose phosphate is then dehydrogenated by a hydrogen carrier called NAD which accepts protons from the triose phosphate to form NADH. There are a few ways of showing NADH such as NADH2 - I think NADH is the easiest. Once the triose phosphate is dehydrogenated - pyruvic acid is formed which is 3C and will be used for the link reaction to the Krebs cycle. This reaction also subsequently forms two molecules of ATP.

The overall production of ATP for glycolysis is (4-2)= 2
For each glucose molecule, the process happens twice, so pay attention to what the question states!
