What is x when 68 divided by x equals 34?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 68 ÷ 34 = 2

To prove this, let's compute 68 divided by 2: $\frac{68}{2} = 34$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 68 divided by x gives a result of 34, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{68}{x} = 34$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{68 x}{x} = 34 x$
$\frac{68 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 68$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 68$ (or just $68$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $68 = 34 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 34: $\frac{68}{34} = \frac{34 x}{34}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2 = x$ (or $x = 2$ )

So, if the dividend is 68 and the quotient is 34, the divisor is 2.
