What is x when 44 divided by x equals 48?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 44 ÷ 48 = 0.91666666666667

To prove this, let's compute 44 divided by 0.91666666666667: $\frac{44}{0.91666666666667} = 48$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 44 divided by x gives a result of 48, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{44}{x} = 48$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{44 x}{x} = 48 x$
$\frac{44 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 44$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 44$ (or just $44$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $44 = 48 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 48: $\frac{44}{48} = \frac{48 x}{48}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.91666666666667 = x$ (or $x = 0.91666666666667$ )

So, if the dividend is 44 and the quotient is 48, the divisor is 0.91666666666667.
