What Divided By 57 Equals 268

Solving What Divided by 57 Equals 268

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

$\frac{x}{57}=268$

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 $57$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 268 \times 57$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 15276$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $57$ equals $268$?” is $15276$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{57} = 268$

And insert $15276$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{15276}{57} = 268$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
