69 times what equals 87?

69 times what equals 87? In other words, what do you multiply by 69 to get 87? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "69 times what equals 87?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

69 • x = 87

Which can be written as:

69x = 87

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 69 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 69.

69x/69 = 87/69
