What is x when 43 divided by x equals 63?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 43 and the quotient 63?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 43 ÷ 63 = 0.68253968253968

To prove this, let's compute 43 divided by 0.68253968253968: 43 0.68253968253968 = 63

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 43 divided by x gives a result of 63, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

43 x = 63

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 43 x x = 63 x
  2. 43 x x is equivalent to x x × 43 , which simplifies to 1 × 43 (or just 43 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 43 = 63 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 63: 43 63 = 63 x 63
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.68253968253968 = x (or x = 0.68253968253968 )

So, if the dividend is 43 and the quotient is 63, the divisor is 0.68253968253968.
