What is x when 69 divided by x equals 24?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 69 ÷ 24 = 2.875

To prove this, let's compute 69 divided by 2.875: $\frac{69}{2.875} = 24$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 69 divided by x gives a result of 24, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{69}{x} = 24$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{69 x}{x} = 24 x$
$\frac{69 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 69$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 69$ (or just $69$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $69 = 24 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 24: $\frac{69}{24} = \frac{24 x}{24}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.875 = x$ (or $x = 2.875$ )

So, if the dividend is 69 and the quotient is 24, the divisor is 2.875.
