What is x when 13 divided by x equals 95?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 13 and the quotient 95?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 13 ÷ 95 = 0.13684210526316

To prove this, let's compute 13 divided by 0.13684210526316: 13 0.13684210526316 = 95

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 13 divided by x gives a result of 95, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

13 x = 95

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 13 x x = 95 x
  2. 13 x x is equivalent to x x × 13 , which simplifies to 1 × 13 (or just 13 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 13 = 95 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 95: 13 95 = 95 x 95
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.13684210526316 = x (or x = 0.13684210526316 )

So, if the dividend is 13 and the quotient is 95, the divisor is 0.13684210526316.
