What is x when 91 divided by x equals 57?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 91 and the quotient 57?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 91 ÷ 57 = 1.5964912280702

To prove this, let's compute 91 divided by 1.5964912280702: 91 1.5964912280702 = 57

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 91 divided by x gives a result of 57, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

91 x = 57

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 91 x x = 57 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 = 57 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 57: 91 57 = 57 x 57
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.5964912280702 = x (or x = 1.5964912280702 )

So, if the dividend is 91 and the quotient is 57, the divisor is 1.5964912280702.
