What is x when 43 divided by x equals 91?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 43 and the quotient 91?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 43 ÷ 91 = 0.47252747252747

To prove this, let's compute 43 divided by 0.47252747252747: 43 0.47252747252747 = 91

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 43 divided by x gives a result of 91, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

43 x = 91

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 43 x x = 91 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 = 91 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 91: 43 91 = 91 x 91
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.47252747252747 = x (or x = 0.47252747252747 )

So, if the dividend is 43 and the quotient is 91, the divisor is 0.47252747252747.
