70 times what equals 31?

70 times what equals 31? In other words, what do you multiply by 70 to get 31? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "70 times what equals 31?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

70 • x = 31

Which can be written as:

70x = 31

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 70 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 70.

70x/70 = 31/70

70x/70 is x and 31/70 is 0.4429 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.4429

Thus, the answer to "70 times what equals 31?" is 0.4429.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.4429 by 70 to see that it equals 31. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
