What Divided By 21 Equals 62

Solving What Divided by 21 Equals 62

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

$\frac{x}{21}=62$

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 $21$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 62 \times 21$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 1302$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $21$ equals $62$?” is $1302$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{21} = 62$

And insert $1302$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{1302}{21} = 62$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
