38 times what equals 92?

38 times what equals 92? In other words, what do you multiply by 38 to get 92? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "38 times what equals 92?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

38 • x = 92

Which can be written as:

38x = 92

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 38 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 38.

38x/38 = 92/38

38x/38 is x and 92/38 is 2.4211 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 2.4211

Thus, the answer to "38 times what equals 92?" is 2.4211.

To double-check our work, multiply 2.4211 by 38 to see that it equals 92. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
