What is x when 79 divided by x equals 92?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 79 ÷ 92 = 0.85869565217391

To prove this, let's compute 79 divided by 0.85869565217391: $\frac{79}{0.85869565217391} = 92$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 79 divided by x gives a result of 92, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{79}{x} = 92$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{79 x}{x} = 92 x$
$\frac{79 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 79$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 79$ (or just $79$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $79 = 92 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 92: $\frac{79}{92} = \frac{92 x}{92}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.85869565217391 = x$ (or $x = 0.85869565217391$ )

So, if the dividend is 79 and the quotient is 92, the divisor is 0.85869565217391.
