49 Divided by What Equals 66?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 49 by to equal 66?Solving 49 Divided by What Equals 66Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:49x=66\frac{49}{x} = 66x49=66The 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 49:49=66∗x49 = 66*x49=66∗xThen we can isolate x on the right side of the equation by dividing both sides by 66:4966=x\frac{49}{66} = x6649=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=0.742x = 0.742x=0.742Practice 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 8 equals 28?90 divided by what equals 2?What is 13/10 divided by 20?What is 11/16 divided by 3/5?What is 6 divided by 15/20?
