What is x when 11 divided by x equals 1?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 11 and the quotient 1?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 11 ÷ 1 = 11

To prove this, let's compute 11 divided by 11: 11 11 = 1

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 11 divided by x gives a result of 1, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

11 x = 1

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 11 x x = 1 x
  2. 11 x x is equivalent to x x × 11 , which simplifies to 1 × 11 (or just 11 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 11 = 1 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 1: 11 1 = 1 x 1
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 11 = x (or x = 11 )

So, if the dividend is 11 and the quotient is 1, the divisor is 11.
