What is x when 94 divided by x equals 4?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 94 and the quotient 4?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 94 ÷ 4 = 23.5

To prove this, let's compute 94 divided by 23.5: 94 23.5 = 4

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 94 divided by x gives a result of 4, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

94 x = 4

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 94 x x = 4 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 = 4 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 4: 94 4 = 4 x 4
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 23.5 = x (or x = 23.5 )

So, if the dividend is 94 and the quotient is 4, the divisor is 23.5.
