What is x when 80 divided by x equals 62?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 80 ÷ 62 = 1.2903225806452

To prove this, let's compute 80 divided by 1.2903225806452: $\frac{80}{1.2903225806452} = 62$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 80 divided by x gives a result of 62, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{80}{x} = 62$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{80 x}{x} = 62 x$
$\frac{80 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 80$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 80$ (or just $80$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $80 = 62 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 62: $\frac{80}{62} = \frac{62 x}{62}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.2903225806452 = x$ (or $x = 1.2903225806452$ )

So, if the dividend is 80 and the quotient is 62, the divisor is 1.2903225806452.
