What is x when 14 divided by x equals 91?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 14 and the quotient 91?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 14 ÷ 91 = 0.15384615384615

To prove this, let's compute 14 divided by 0.15384615384615: 14 0.15384615384615 = 91

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 14 divided by x gives a result of 91, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

14 x = 91

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 14 x x = 91 x
  2. 14 x x is equivalent to x x × 14 , which simplifies to 1 × 14 (or just 14 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 14 = 91 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 91: 14 91 = 91 x 91
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.15384615384615 = x (or x = 0.15384615384615 )

So, if the dividend is 14 and the quotient is 91, the divisor is 0.15384615384615.
