9 times what equals 14?
9 times what equals 14? In other words, what do you multiply by 9 to get 14? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "9 times what equals 14?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:
9 • x = 14
Which can be written as:
9x = 14
To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 9 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 9.
9x/9 = 14/9
9x/9 is x and 14/9 is 1.5556 which means our equation will look like this:
x = 1.5556
Thus, the answer to "9 times what equals 14?" is 1.5556.
To double-check our work, multiply 1.5556 by 9 to see that it equals 14. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
