What is x when 34 divided by x equals 79?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 34 ÷ 79 = 0.43037974683544

To prove this, let's compute 34 divided by 0.43037974683544: $\frac{34}{0.43037974683544} = 79$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 34 divided by x gives a result of 79, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{34}{x} = 79$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{34 x}{x} = 79 x$
$\frac{34 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 34$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 34$ (or just $34$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $34 = 79 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 79: $\frac{34}{79} = \frac{79 x}{79}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.43037974683544 = x$ (or $x = 0.43037974683544$ )

So, if the dividend is 34 and the quotient is 79, the divisor is 0.43037974683544.
