81 times what equals 62?

81 times what equals 62? In other words, what do you multiply by 81 to get 62? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "81 times what equals 62?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

81 • x = 62

Which can be written as:

81x = 62

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 81 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 81.

81x/81 = 62/81

81x/81 is x and 62/81 is 0.7654 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.7654
