What is x when 94 divided by x equals 45?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 94 and the quotient 45?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 94 ÷ 45 = 2.0888888888889

To prove this, let's compute 94 divided by 2.0888888888889: 94 2.0888888888889 = 45

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 94 divided by x gives a result of 45, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

94 x = 45

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 94 x x = 45 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 = 45 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 45: 94 45 = 45 x 45
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.0888888888889 = x (or x = 2.0888888888889 )

So, if the dividend is 94 and the quotient is 45, the divisor is 2.0888888888889.
