What Divided By 76 Equals 162

Solving What Divided by 76 Equals 162

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

$\frac{x}{76}=162$

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 $76$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 162 \times 76$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 12312$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $76$ equals $162$?” is $12312$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{76} = 162$

And insert $12312$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{12312}{76} = 162$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
