What is x when 68 divided by x equals 91?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 68 and the quotient 91?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 68 ÷ 91 = 0.74725274725275

To prove this, let's compute 68 divided by 0.74725274725275: 68 0.74725274725275 = 91

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 68 divided by x gives a result of 91, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

68 x = 91

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 68 x x = 91 x
  2. 68 x x is equivalent to x x × 68 , which simplifies to 1 × 68 (or just 68 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 68 = 91 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 91: 68 91 = 91 x 91
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.74725274725275 = x (or x = 0.74725274725275 )

So, if the dividend is 68 and the quotient is 91, the divisor is 0.74725274725275.
