What is x when 91 divided by x equals 30?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 91 and the quotient 30?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 91 ÷ 30 = 3.0333333333333

To prove this, let's compute 91 divided by 3.0333333333333: 91 3.0333333333333 = 30

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 91 divided by x gives a result of 30, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

91 x = 30

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 91 x x = 30 x
  2. 91 x x is equivalent to x x × 91 , which simplifies to 1 × 91 (or just 91 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 91 = 30 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 30: 91 30 = 30 x 30
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 3.0333333333333 = x (or x = 3.0333333333333 )

So, if the dividend is 91 and the quotient is 30, the divisor is 3.0333333333333.
