68 Divided by What Equals 98?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 68 by to equal 98?Solving 68 Divided by What Equals 98Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:68x=98\frac{68}{x} = 98x68=98The 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 68:68=98∗x68 = 98*x68=98∗xThen we can isolate x on the right side of the equation by dividing both sides by 98:6898=x\frac{68}{98} = x9868=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=0.694x = 0.694x=0.694Practice 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 88 equals 91?45 divided by what equals 92?What is 2/11 divided by 96?What is 6/20 divided by 4/1?What is 62 divided by 7/9?
