What is x when 44 divided by x equals 36?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 44 ÷ 36 = 1.2222222222222

To prove this, let's compute 44 divided by 1.2222222222222: $\frac{44}{1.2222222222222} = 36$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 44 divided by x gives a result of 36, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{44}{x} = 36$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{44 x}{x} = 36 x$
$\frac{44 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 44$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 44$ (or just $44$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $44 = 36 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 36: $\frac{44}{36} = \frac{36 x}{36}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.2222222222222 = x$ (or $x = 1.2222222222222$ )

So, if the dividend is 44 and the quotient is 36, the divisor is 1.2222222222222.
