What is x when 84 divided by x equals 34?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 84 ÷ 34 = 2.4705882352941

To prove this, let's compute 84 divided by 2.4705882352941: $\frac{84}{2.4705882352941} = 34$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 84 divided by x gives a result of 34, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{84}{x} = 34$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{84 x}{x} = 34 x$
$\frac{84 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 84$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 84$ (or just $84$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $84 = 34 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 34: $\frac{84}{34} = \frac{34 x}{34}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.4705882352941 = x$ (or $x = 2.4705882352941$ )

So, if the dividend is 84 and the quotient is 34, the divisor is 2.4705882352941.
