What is x when 49 divided by x equals 39?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 49 ÷ 39 = 1.2564102564103

To prove this, let's compute 49 divided by 1.2564102564103: $\frac{49}{1.2564102564103} = 39$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 49 divided by x gives a result of 39, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{49}{x} = 39$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{49 x}{x} = 39 x$
$\frac{49 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 49$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 49$ (or just $49$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $49 = 39 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 39: $\frac{49}{39} = \frac{39 x}{39}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.2564102564103 = x$ (or $x = 1.2564102564103$ )

So, if the dividend is 49 and the quotient is 39, the divisor is 1.2564102564103.
