What is x when 23 divided by x equals 29?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 23 ÷ 29 = 0.79310344827586

To prove this, let's compute 23 divided by 0.79310344827586: $\frac{23}{0.79310344827586} = 29$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 23 divided by x gives a result of 29, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{23}{x} = 29$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{23 x}{x} = 29 x$
$\frac{23 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 23$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 23$ (or just $23$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $23 = 29 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 29: $\frac{23}{29} = \frac{29 x}{29}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.79310344827586 = x$ (or $x = 0.79310344827586$ )

So, if the dividend is 23 and the quotient is 29, the divisor is 0.79310344827586.
