27 times what equals 99?


27 times what equals 99? In other words, what do you multiply by 27 to get 99? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "27 times what equals 99?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

27 • x = 99

Which can be written as:

27x = 99

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 27 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 27.

27x/27 = 99/27

27x/27 is x and 99/27 is 3.6667 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 3.6667

Thus, the answer to "27 times what equals 99?" is 3.6667.


To double-check our work, multiply 3.6667 by 27 to see that it equals 99. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
