What is x when 41 divided by x equals 23?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 41 ÷ 23 = 1.7826086956522

To prove this, let's compute 41 divided by 1.7826086956522: $\frac{41}{1.7826086956522} = 23$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 41 divided by x gives a result of 23, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{41}{x} = 23$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{41 x}{x} = 23 x$
$\frac{41 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 41$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 41$ (or just $41$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $41 = 23 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 23: $\frac{41}{23} = \frac{23 x}{23}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.7826086956522 = x$ (or $x = 1.7826086956522$ )

So, if the dividend is 41 and the quotient is 23, the divisor is 1.7826086956522.
