What is x when 76 divided by x equals 67?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 76 and the quotient 67?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 76 ÷ 67 = 1.134328358209

To prove this, let's compute 76 divided by 1.134328358209: 76 1.134328358209 = 67

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 76 divided by x gives a result of 67, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

76 x = 67

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 76 x x = 67 x
  2. 76 x x is equivalent to x x × 76 , which simplifies to 1 × 76 (or just 76 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 76 = 67 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 67: 76 67 = 67 x 67
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.134328358209 = x (or x = 1.134328358209 )

So, if the dividend is 76 and the quotient is 67, the divisor is 1.134328358209.
