9 times what equals 41?

9 times what equals 41? In other words, what do you multiply by 9 to get 41? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "9 times what equals 41?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

9 • x = 41

Which can be written as:

9x = 41

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 = 41/9

9x/9 is x and 41/9 is 4.5556 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 4.5556

Thus, the answer to "9 times what equals 41?" is 4.5556.

To double-check our work, multiply 4.5556 by 9 to see that it equals 41. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
