What is x when 61 divided by x equals 95?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 61 and the quotient 95?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 61 ÷ 95 = 0.64210526315789

To prove this, let's compute 61 divided by 0.64210526315789: 61 0.64210526315789 = 95

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 61 divided by x gives a result of 95, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

61 x = 95

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 61 x x = 95 x
  2. 61 x x is equivalent to x x × 61 , which simplifies to 1 × 61 (or just 61 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 61 = 95 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 95: 61 95 = 95 x 95
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.64210526315789 = x (or x = 0.64210526315789 )

So, if the dividend is 61 and the quotient is 95, the divisor is 0.64210526315789.
