What is x when 41 divided by x equals 7?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 41 ÷ 7 = 5.8571428571429

To prove this, let's compute 41 divided by 5.8571428571429: $\frac{41}{5.8571428571429} = 7$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 41 divided by x gives a result of 7, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{41}{x} = 7$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{41 x}{x} = 7 x$
$\frac{41 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 41$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 41$ (or just $41$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $41 = 7 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 7: $\frac{41}{7} = \frac{7 x}{7}$
Which gives, after simplification: $5.8571428571429 = x$ (or $x = 5.8571428571429$ )

So, if the dividend is 41 and the quotient is 7, the divisor is 5.8571428571429.
