What Divided by 94 Equals 13?
Methods
Setting 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, when divided by 94, equals 13?
Solving What Divided by 94 Equals 13
Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:
x
94
=
13
\frac{x}{94} = 13
94 x = 13
The 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, we can do that by multiplying both sides of the equation by 94, resulting in this equation:
x
=
13
∗
94
x = 13*94
x = 13 ∗ 94
Then we simplify and find our answer:
x
=
1222
x = 1222
x = 1222
So, the answer to the question “What divided by 94 equals 13?” is 1222.To prove this, we can take the original problem:
x
94
=
13
\frac{x}{94} = 13
94 x = 13
And insert 1222 in the place of x:
1222
94
=
13
\frac{1222}{94} = 13
94 1222 = 13
Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
