What Divided By 45 Equals 115

Solving What Divided by 45 Equals 115

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

$\frac{x}{45}=115$

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 $45$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 115 \times 45$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 5175$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $45$ equals $115$?” is $5175$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{45} = 115$

And insert $5175$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{5175}{45} = 115$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
