What is x when 95 divided by x equals 34?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 95 and the quotient 34?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 95 ÷ 34 = 2.7941176470588

To prove this, let's compute 95 divided by 2.7941176470588: 95 2.7941176470588 = 34

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 95 divided by x gives a result of 34, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

95 x = 34

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 95 x x = 34 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 = 34 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 34: 95 34 = 34 x 34
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.7941176470588 = x (or x = 2.7941176470588 )

So, if the dividend is 95 and the quotient is 34, the divisor is 2.7941176470588.
