What is x when 98 divided by x equals 57?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 98 ÷ 57 = 1.719298245614

To prove this, let's compute 98 divided by 1.719298245614: $\frac{98}{1.719298245614} = 57$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 98 divided by x gives a result of 57, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{98}{x} = 57$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{98 x}{x} = 57 x$
$\frac{98 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 98$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 98$ (or just $98$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $98 = 57 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 57: $\frac{98}{57} = \frac{57 x}{57}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.719298245614 = x$ (or $x = 1.719298245614$ )

So, if the dividend is 98 and the quotient is 57, the divisor is 1.719298245614.
