What is x when 69 divided by x equals 25?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 69 and the quotient 25?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 69 ÷ 25 = 2.76

To prove this, let's compute 69 divided by 2.76: 69 2.76 = 25

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 69 divided by x gives a result of 25, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

69 x = 25

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 69 x x = 25 x
  2. 69 x x is equivalent to x x × 69 , which simplifies to 1 × 69 (or just 69 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 69 = 25 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 25: 69 25 = 25 x 25
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.76 = x (or x = 2.76 )

So, if the dividend is 69 and the quotient is 25, the divisor is 2.76.
