What is x when 63 divided by x equals 43?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 63 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 63 ÷ 43 = 1.4651162790698

To prove this, let's compute 63 divided by 1.4651162790698: 63 1.4651162790698 = 43

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 63 divided by x gives a result of 43, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

63 x = 43

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 63 x x = 43 x
  2. 63 x x is equivalent to x x × 63 , which simplifies to 1 × 63 (or just 63 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 63 = 43 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 43: 63 43 = 43 x 43
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.4651162790698 = x (or x = 1.4651162790698 )

So, if the dividend is 63 and the quotient is 43, the divisor is 1.4651162790698.
