What is x when 84 divided by x equals 62?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 84 ÷ 62 = 1.3548387096774

To prove this, let's compute 84 divided by 1.3548387096774: $\frac{84}{1.3548387096774} = 62$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 84 divided by x gives a result of 62, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{84}{x} = 62$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{84 x}{x} = 62 x$
$\frac{84 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 84$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 84$ (or just $84$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $84 = 62 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 62: $\frac{84}{62} = \frac{62 x}{62}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.3548387096774 = x$ (or $x = 1.3548387096774$ )

So, if the dividend is 84 and the quotient is 62, the divisor is 1.3548387096774.
