What is x when 39 divided by x equals 94?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 39 and the quotient 94?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 39 ÷ 94 = 0.41489361702128

To prove this, let's compute 39 divided by 0.41489361702128: 39 0.41489361702128 = 94

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 39 divided by x gives a result of 94, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

39 x = 94

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 39 x x = 94 x
  2. 39 x x is equivalent to x x × 39 , which simplifies to 1 × 39 (or just 39 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 39 = 94 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 94: 39 94 = 94 x 94
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.41489361702128 = x (or x = 0.41489361702128 )

So, if the dividend is 39 and the quotient is 94, the divisor is 0.41489361702128.
