What is x when 29 divided by x equals 11?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 29 and the quotient 11?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 29 ÷ 11 = 2.6363636363636

To prove this, let's compute 29 divided by 2.6363636363636: 29 2.6363636363636 = 11

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 29 divided by x gives a result of 11, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

29 x = 11

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 29 x x = 11 x
  2. 29 x x is equivalent to x x × 29 , which simplifies to 1 × 29 (or just 29 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 29 = 11 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 11: 29 11 = 11 x 11
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.6363636363636 = x (or x = 2.6363636363636 )

So, if the dividend is 29 and the quotient is 11, the divisor is 2.6363636363636.
