What is x when 68 divided by x equals 47?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 68 ÷ 47 = 1.4468085106383

To prove this, let's compute 68 divided by 1.4468085106383: $\frac{68}{1.4468085106383} = 47$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 68 divided by x gives a result of 47, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{68}{x} = 47$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{68 x}{x} = 47 x$
$\frac{68 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 68$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 68$ (or just $68$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $68 = 47 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 47: $\frac{68}{47} = \frac{47 x}{47}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.4468085106383 = x$ (or $x = 1.4468085106383$ )

So, if the dividend is 68 and the quotient is 47, the divisor is 1.4468085106383.
