What is x when 64 divided by x equals 24?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 64 ÷ 24 = 2.6666666666667

To prove this, let's compute 64 divided by 2.6666666666667: $\frac{64}{2.6666666666667} = 24$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 64 divided by x gives a result of 24, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{64}{x} = 24$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{64 x}{x} = 24 x$
$\frac{64 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 64$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 64$ (or just $64$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $64 = 24 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 24: $\frac{64}{24} = \frac{24 x}{24}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.6666666666667 = x$ (or $x = 2.6666666666667$ )

So, if the dividend is 64 and the quotient is 24, the divisor is 2.6666666666667.
