What is x when 100 divided by x equals 67?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 100 and the quotient 67?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 100 ÷ 67 = 1.4925373134328

To prove this, let's compute 100 divided by 1.4925373134328: 100 1.4925373134328 = 67

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 100 divided by x gives a result of 67, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

100 x = 67

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 100 x x = 67 x
  2. 100 x x is equivalent to x x × 100 , which simplifies to 1 × 100 (or just 100 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 100 = 67 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 67: 100 67 = 67 x 67
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.4925373134328 = x (or x = 1.4925373134328 )

So, if the dividend is 100 and the quotient is 67, the divisor is 1.4925373134328.
