What is x when 78 divided by x equals 94?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 78 ÷ 94 = 0.82978723404255

To prove this, let's compute 78 divided by 0.82978723404255: $\frac{78}{0.82978723404255} = 94$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 78 divided by x gives a result of 94, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{78}{x} = 94$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{78 x}{x} = 94 x$
$\frac{78 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 78$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 78$ (or just $78$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $78 = 94 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 94: $\frac{78}{94} = \frac{94 x}{94}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.82978723404255 = x$ (or $x = 0.82978723404255$ )

So, if the dividend is 78 and the quotient is 94, the divisor is 0.82978723404255.
