What is x when 66 divided by x equals 1?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 66 and the quotient 1?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 66 ÷ 1 = 66

To prove this, let's compute 66 divided by 66: 66 66 = 1

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 66 divided by x gives a result of 1, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

66 x = 1

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 66 x x = 1 x
  2. 66 x x is equivalent to x x × 66 , which simplifies to 1 × 66 (or just 66 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 66 = 1 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 1: 66 1 = 1 x 1
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 66 = x (or x = 66 )

So, if the dividend is 66 and the quotient is 1, the divisor is 66.
