What is x when 23 divided by x equals 41?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 23 ÷ 41 = 0.5609756097561

To prove this, let's compute 23 divided by 0.5609756097561: $\frac{23}{0.5609756097561} = 41$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 23 divided by x gives a result of 41, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{23}{x} = 41$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{23 x}{x} = 41 x$
$\frac{23 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 23$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 23$ (or just $23$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $23 = 41 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 41: $\frac{23}{41} = \frac{41 x}{41}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.5609756097561 = x$ (or $x = 0.5609756097561$ )

So, if the dividend is 23 and the quotient is 41, the divisor is 0.5609756097561.
