86 Divided by What Equals 92?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 86 by to equal 92?Solving 86 Divided by What Equals 92Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:86x=92\frac{86}{x} = 92x86=92The 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 86:86=92∗x86 = 92*x86=92∗xThen we can isolate x on the right side of the equation by dividing both sides by 92:8692=x\frac{86}{92} = x9286=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=0.935x = 0.935x=0.935Practice 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 29 equals 59?48 divided by what equals 23?What is 9/12 divided by 77?What is 10/2 divided by 13/18?What is 84 divided by 6/17?
