What is x when 41 divided by x equals 74?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 41 ÷ 74 = 0.55405405405405

To prove this, let's compute 41 divided by 0.55405405405405: $\frac{41}{0.55405405405405} = 74$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 41 divided by x gives a result of 74, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{41}{x} = 74$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{41 x}{x} = 74 x$
$\frac{41 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 41$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 41$ (or just $41$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $41 = 74 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 74: $\frac{41}{74} = \frac{74 x}{74}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.55405405405405 = x$ (or $x = 0.55405405405405$ )

So, if the dividend is 41 and the quotient is 74, the divisor is 0.55405405405405.
