What is x when 76 divided by x equals 69?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 76 and the quotient 69?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 76 ÷ 69 = 1.1014492753623

To prove this, let's compute 76 divided by 1.1014492753623: 76 1.1014492753623 = 69

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 76 divided by x gives a result of 69, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

76 x = 69

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 76 x x = 69 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 = 69 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 69: 76 69 = 69 x 69
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.1014492753623 = x (or x = 1.1014492753623 )

So, if the dividend is 76 and the quotient is 69, the divisor is 1.1014492753623.
