78 times what equals 67?

78 times what equals 67? In other words, what do you multiply by 78 to get 67? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "78 times what equals 67?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

78 • x = 67

Which can be written as:

78x = 67

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 78 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 78.

78x/78 = 67/78
