What is x when 44 divided by x equals 80?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 44 ÷ 80 = 0.55

To prove this, let's compute 44 divided by 0.55: $\frac{44}{0.55} = 80$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 44 divided by x gives a result of 80, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{44}{x} = 80$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{44 x}{x} = 80 x$
$\frac{44 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 44$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 44$ (or just $44$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $44 = 80 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 80: $\frac{44}{80} = \frac{80 x}{80}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.55 = x$ (or $x = 0.55$ )

So, if the dividend is 44 and the quotient is 80, the divisor is 0.55.
