What is x when 94 divided by x equals 36?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 94 and the quotient 36?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 94 ÷ 36 = 2.6111111111111

To prove this, let's compute 94 divided by 2.6111111111111: 94 2.6111111111111 = 36

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 94 divided by x gives a result of 36, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

94 x = 36

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 94 x x = 36 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 = 36 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 36: 94 36 = 36 x 36
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.6111111111111 = x (or x = 2.6111111111111 )

So, if the dividend is 94 and the quotient is 36, the divisor is 2.6111111111111.
