30 times what equals 61?

30 times what equals 61? In other words, what do you multiply by 30 to get 61? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "30 times what equals 61?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

30 • x = 61

Which can be written as:

30x = 61

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 30 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 30.

30x/30 = 61/30

30x/30 is x and 61/30 is 2.0333 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 2.0333

Thus, the answer to "30 times what equals 61?" is 2.0333.

To double-check our work, multiply 2.0333 by 30 to see that it equals 61. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
