55 times what equals 41?

55 times what equals 41? In other words, what do you multiply by 55 to get 41? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "55 times what equals 41?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

55 • x = 41

Which can be written as:

55x = 41

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 55 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 55.

55x/55 = 41/55

55x/55 is x and 41/55 is 0.7455 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.7455
