What is x when 67 divided by x equals 100?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 67 and the quotient 100?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 67 ÷ 100 = 0.67

To prove this, let's compute 67 divided by 0.67: 67 0.67 = 100

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 67 divided by x gives a result of 100, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

67 x = 100

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 67 x x = 100 x
  2. 67 x x is equivalent to x x × 67 , which simplifies to 1 × 67 (or just 67 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 67 = 100 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 100: 67 100 = 100 x 100
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.67 = x (or x = 0.67 )

So, if the dividend is 67 and the quotient is 100, the divisor is 0.67.
