What is x when 67 divided by x equals 4?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 67 and the quotient 4?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 67 ÷ 4 = 16.75

To prove this, let's compute 67 divided by 16.75: 67 16.75 = 4

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 67 divided by x gives a result of 4, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

67 x = 4

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 67 x x = 4 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 = 4 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 4: 67 4 = 4 x 4
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 16.75 = x (or x = 16.75 )

So, if the dividend is 67 and the quotient is 4, the divisor is 16.75.
