19 times what equals 12?

19 times what equals 12? In other words, what do you multiply by 19 to get 12? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "19 times what equals 12?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

19 • x = 12

Which can be written as:

19x = 12

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 19 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 19.

19x/19 = 12/19

19x/19 is x and 12/19 is 0.6316 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.6316

Thus, the answer to "19 times what equals 12?" is 0.6316.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.6316 by 19 to see that it equals 12. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
