What is x when 95 divided by x equals 22?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 95 and the quotient 22?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 95 ÷ 22 = 4.3181818181818

To prove this, let's compute 95 divided by 4.3181818181818: 95 4.3181818181818 = 22

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 95 divided by x gives a result of 22, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

95 x = 22

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 95 x x = 22 x
  2. 95 x x is equivalent to x x × 95 , which simplifies to 1 × 95 (or just 95 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 95 = 22 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 22: 95 22 = 22 x 22
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 4.3181818181818 = x (or x = 4.3181818181818 )

So, if the dividend is 95 and the quotient is 22, the divisor is 4.3181818181818.
