What is x when 67 divided by x equals 43?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 67 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 67 ÷ 43 = 1.5581395348837

To prove this, let's compute 67 divided by 1.5581395348837: 67 1.5581395348837 = 43

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 67 divided by x gives a result of 43, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

67 x = 43

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 67 x x = 43 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 = 43 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 43: 67 43 = 43 x 43
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.5581395348837 = x (or x = 1.5581395348837 )

So, if the dividend is 67 and the quotient is 43, the divisor is 1.5581395348837.
