What is x when 29 divided by x equals 92?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 29 and the quotient 92?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 29 ÷ 92 = 0.31521739130435

To prove this, let's compute 29 divided by 0.31521739130435: 29 0.31521739130435 = 92

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 29 divided by x gives a result of 92, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

29 x = 92

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 29 x x = 92 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 = 92 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 92: 29 92 = 92 x 92
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.31521739130435 = x (or x = 0.31521739130435 )

So, if the dividend is 29 and the quotient is 92, the divisor is 0.31521739130435.
