What Divided By 18 Equals 268

Solving What Divided by 18 Equals 268

Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:

$\frac{x}{18}=268$

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 $18$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 268 \times 18$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 4824$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $18$ equals $268$?” is $4824$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{18} = 268$

And insert $4824$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{4824}{18} = 268$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
