1 times what equals 4?
1 times what equals 4? In other words, what do you multiply by 1 to get 4? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "1 times what equals 4?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:
1 • x = 4
Which can be written as:
1x = 4
To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 1 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 1.
1x/1 = 4/1
1x/1 is x and 4/1 is 4 which means our equation will look like this:
x = 4
Thus, the answer to "1 times what equals 4?" is 4.
To double-check our work, multiply 4 by 1 to see that it equals 4. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
