What is x when 69 divided by x equals 63?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 69 and the quotient 63?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 69 ÷ 63 = 1.0952380952381

To prove this, let's compute 69 divided by 1.0952380952381: 69 1.0952380952381 = 63

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 69 divided by x gives a result of 63, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

69 x = 63

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 69 x x = 63 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 = 63 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 63: 69 63 = 63 x 63
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.0952380952381 = x (or x = 1.0952380952381 )

So, if the dividend is 69 and the quotient is 63, the divisor is 1.0952380952381.
