5 times what equals 67?

5 times what equals 67? In other words, what do you multiply by 5 to get 67? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "5 times what equals 67?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

5 • x = 67

Which can be written as:

5x = 67

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 5 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 5.

5x/5 = 67/5

5x/5 is x and 67/5 is 13.4 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 13.4

Thus, the answer to "5 times what equals 67?" is 13.4.

To double-check our work, multiply 13.4 by 5 to see that it equals 67. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
