What is x when 94 divided by x equals 27?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 94 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 94 ÷ 27 = 3.4814814814815

To prove this, let's compute 94 divided by 3.4814814814815: 94 3.4814814814815 = 27

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 94 divided by x gives a result of 27, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

94 x = 27

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 94 x x = 27 x
  2. 94 x x is equivalent to x x × 94 , which simplifies to 1 × 94 (or just 94 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 94 = 27 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 27: 94 27 = 27 x 27
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 3.4814814814815 = x (or x = 3.4814814814815 )

So, if the dividend is 94 and the quotient is 27, the divisor is 3.4814814814815.
