What is x when 29 divided by x equals 27?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 29 ÷ 27 = 1.0740740740741

To prove this, let's compute 29 divided by 1.0740740740741: $\frac{29}{1.0740740740741} = 27$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 29 divided by x gives a result of 27, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{29}{x} = 27$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{29 x}{x} = 27 x$
$\frac{29 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 29$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 29$ (or just $29$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $29 = 27 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 27: $\frac{29}{27} = \frac{27 x}{27}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.0740740740741 = x$ (or $x = 1.0740740740741$ )

So, if the dividend is 29 and the quotient is 27, the divisor is 1.0740740740741.
