20 times what equals 13?

20 times what equals 13? In other words, what do you multiply by 20 to get 13? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "20 times what equals 13?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

20 • x = 13

Which can be written as:

20x = 13

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 20 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 20.

20x/20 = 13/20

20x/20 is x and 13/20 is 0.65 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.65

Thus, the answer to "20 times what equals 13?" is 0.65.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.65 by 20 to see that it equals 13. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
