What is x when 62 divided by x equals 46?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 62 ÷ 46 = 1.3478260869565

To prove this, let's compute 62 divided by 1.3478260869565: $\frac{62}{1.3478260869565} = 46$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 62 divided by x gives a result of 46, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{62}{x} = 46$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{62 x}{x} = 46 x$
$\frac{62 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 62$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 62$ (or just $62$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $62 = 46 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 46: $\frac{62}{46} = \frac{46 x}{46}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.3478260869565 = x$ (or $x = 1.3478260869565$ )

So, if the dividend is 62 and the quotient is 46, the divisor is 1.3478260869565.
