What is x when 60 divided by x equals 73?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 60 ÷ 73 = 0.82191780821918

To prove this, let's compute 60 divided by 0.82191780821918: $\frac{60}{0.82191780821918} = 73$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 60 divided by x gives a result of 73, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{60}{x} = 73$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{60 x}{x} = 73 x$
$\frac{60 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 60$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 60$ (or just $60$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $60 = 73 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 73: $\frac{60}{73} = \frac{73 x}{73}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.82191780821918 = x$ (or $x = 0.82191780821918$ )

So, if the dividend is 60 and the quotient is 73, the divisor is 0.82191780821918.
