What is x when 64 divided by x equals 29?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 64 and the quotient 29?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 64 ÷ 29 = 2.2068965517241

To prove this, let's compute 64 divided by 2.2068965517241: 64 2.2068965517241 = 29

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 64 divided by x gives a result of 29, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

64 x = 29

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 64 x x = 29 x
  2. 64 x x is equivalent to x x × 64 , which simplifies to 1 × 64 (or just 64 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 64 = 29 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 29: 64 29 = 29 x 29
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.2068965517241 = x (or x = 2.2068965517241 )

So, if the dividend is 64 and the quotient is 29, the divisor is 2.2068965517241.
