What is x when 48 divided by x equals 94?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 48 and the quotient 94?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 48 ÷ 94 = 0.51063829787234

To prove this, let's compute 48 divided by 0.51063829787234: 48 0.51063829787234 = 94

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 48 divided by x gives a result of 94, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

48 x = 94

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 48 x x = 94 x
  2. 48 x x is equivalent to x x × 48 , which simplifies to 1 × 48 (or just 48 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 48 = 94 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 94: 48 94 = 94 x 94
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.51063829787234 = x (or x = 0.51063829787234 )

So, if the dividend is 48 and the quotient is 94, the divisor is 0.51063829787234.
