95 Divided by What Equals 86?MethodsSetting up the problem:In a problem like this, the “what” means that we’re working with a variable. The most common variable used in math is “x”. So we could say what number, x can we divide 95 by to equal 86?Solving 95 Divided by What Equals 86Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:95x=86\frac{95}{x} = 86x95=86The goal of the problem is to solve for x. To do this we need to change the equation so that x is alone on one side of the equation.In this case, it can be done in two steps. The first step is to multiply both sides by x to isolate 95:95=86∗x95 = 86*x95=86∗xThen we can isolate x on the right side of the equation by dividing both sides by 86:9586=x\frac{95}{86} = x8695=xWhen we simplify the new equation, we can solve for x. In this example, we will round to the nearest three decimal places if that’s needed.x=1.105x = 1.105x=1.105Practice Other Division Problems Like This OneIf this problem was a little difficult or you want to practice your skills on another one, give it a go on any one of these too!What divided by 38 equals 57?18 divided by what equals 53?What is 20/12 divided by 28?What is 7/1 divided by 8/10?What is 48 divided by 15/6?
