What Divided By 30 Equals 71

Solving What Divided by 30 Equals 71

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

$\frac{x}{30}=71$

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 $30$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 71 \times 30$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 2130$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $30$ equals $71$?” is $2130$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{30} = 71$

And insert $2130$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{2130}{30} = 71$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
