What is x when 75 divided by x equals 63?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 75 and the quotient 63?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 75 ÷ 63 = 1.1904761904762

To prove this, let's compute 75 divided by 1.1904761904762: 75 1.1904761904762 = 63

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 75 divided by x gives a result of 63, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

75 x = 63

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 75 x x = 63 x
  2. 75 x x is equivalent to x x × 75 , which simplifies to 1 × 75 (or just 75 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 75 = 63 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 63: 75 63 = 63 x 63
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.1904761904762 = x (or x = 1.1904761904762 )

So, if the dividend is 75 and the quotient is 63, the divisor is 1.1904761904762.
