What is x when 71 divided by x equals 94?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 71 and the quotient 94?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 71 ÷ 94 = 0.75531914893617

To prove this, let's compute 71 divided by 0.75531914893617: 71 0.75531914893617 = 94

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 71 divided by x gives a result of 94, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

71 x = 94

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 71 x x = 94 x
  2. 71 x x is equivalent to x x × 71 , which simplifies to 1 × 71 (or just 71 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 71 = 94 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 94: 71 94 = 94 x 94
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.75531914893617 = x (or x = 0.75531914893617 )

So, if the dividend is 71 and the quotient is 94, the divisor is 0.75531914893617.
