What is x when 6 divided by x equals 63?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 6 and the quotient 63?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 6 ÷ 63 = 0.095238095238095

To prove this, let's compute 6 divided by 0.095238095238095: 6 0.095238095238095 = 63

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 6 divided by x gives a result of 63, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

6 x = 63

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 6 x x = 63 x
  2. 6 x x is equivalent to x x × 6 , which simplifies to 1 × 6 (or just 6 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 6 = 63 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 63: 6 63 = 63 x 63
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.095238095238095 = x (or x = 0.095238095238095 )

So, if the dividend is 6 and the quotient is 63, the divisor is 0.095238095238095.
