What is x when 41 divided by x equals 95?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 41 and the quotient 95?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 41 ÷ 95 = 0.43157894736842

To prove this, let's compute 41 divided by 0.43157894736842: 41 0.43157894736842 = 95

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 41 divided by x gives a result of 95, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

41 x = 95

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 41 x x = 95 x
  2. 41 x x is equivalent to x x × 41 , which simplifies to 1 × 41 (or just 41 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 41 = 95 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 95: 41 95 = 95 x 95
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.43157894736842 = x (or x = 0.43157894736842 )

So, if the dividend is 41 and the quotient is 95, the divisor is 0.43157894736842.
