What is x when 69 divided by x equals 3?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 69 ÷ 3 = 23

To prove this, let's compute 69 divided by 23: $\frac{69}{23} = 3$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 69 divided by x gives a result of 3, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{69}{x} = 3$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{69 x}{x} = 3 x$
$\frac{69 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 69$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 69$ (or just $69$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $69 = 3 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 3: $\frac{69}{3} = \frac{3 x}{3}$
Which gives, after simplification: $23 = x$ (or $x = 23$ )

So, if the dividend is 69 and the quotient is 3, the divisor is 23.
