What is x when 97 divided by x equals 67?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 97 and the quotient 67?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 97 ÷ 67 = 1.4477611940299

To prove this, let's compute 97 divided by 1.4477611940299: 97 1.4477611940299 = 67

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 97 divided by x gives a result of 67, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

97 x = 67

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 97 x x = 67 x
  2. 97 x x is equivalent to x x × 97 , which simplifies to 1 × 97 (or just 97 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 97 = 67 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 67: 97 67 = 67 x 67
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.4477611940299 = x (or x = 1.4477611940299 )

So, if the dividend is 97 and the quotient is 67, the divisor is 1.4477611940299.
