34 times what equals 21?

34 times what equals 21? In other words, what do you multiply by 34 to get 21? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "34 times what equals 21?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

34 • x = 21

Which can be written as:

34x = 21

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 34 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 34.

34x/34 = 21/34

34x/34 is x and 21/34 is 0.6176 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.6176

Thus, the answer to "34 times what equals 21?" is 0.6176.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.6176 by 34 to see that it equals 21. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
