What is x when 83 divided by x equals 34?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 83 ÷ 34 = 2.4411764705882

To prove this, let's compute 83 divided by 2.4411764705882: $\frac{83}{2.4411764705882} = 34$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 83 divided by x gives a result of 34, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{83}{x} = 34$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{83 x}{x} = 34 x$
$\frac{83 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 83$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 83$ (or just $83$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $83 = 34 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 34: $\frac{83}{34} = \frac{34 x}{34}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.4411764705882 = x$ (or $x = 2.4411764705882$ )

So, if the dividend is 83 and the quotient is 34, the divisor is 2.4411764705882.
