What is x when 68 divided by x equals 82?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 68 ÷ 82 = 0.82926829268293

To prove this, let's compute 68 divided by 0.82926829268293: $\frac{68}{0.82926829268293} = 82$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 68 divided by x gives a result of 82, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{68}{x} = 82$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{68 x}{x} = 82 x$
$\frac{68 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 68$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 68$ (or just $68$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $68 = 82 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 82: $\frac{68}{82} = \frac{82 x}{82}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.82926829268293 = x$ (or $x = 0.82926829268293$ )

So, if the dividend is 68 and the quotient is 82, the divisor is 0.82926829268293.
