What is x when 97 divided by x equals 58?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 97 ÷ 58 = 1.6724137931034

To prove this, let's compute 97 divided by 1.6724137931034: $\frac{97}{1.6724137931034} = 58$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 97 divided by x gives a result of 58, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{97}{x} = 58$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{97 x}{x} = 58 x$
$\frac{97 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 97$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 97$ (or just $97$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $97 = 58 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 58: $\frac{97}{58} = \frac{58 x}{58}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.6724137931034 = x$ (or $x = 1.6724137931034$ )

So, if the dividend is 97 and the quotient is 58, the divisor is 1.6724137931034.
