4 divided by what equals 1?

4 divided by what equals 1? In other words, you have 4 and you divide it by something and then you get 1. What is that something?

We will call that something "X". Here is the equation to find the solution:

		4
		X

= 1

First, multiply both sides by X to get rid of the X as denominator.

		4(X)
		X

= 1(X)

4 = 1X

Then, divide both sides by 1 to get X by itself as follows:

		4
		1

		1X
		1

4 = X

Thus, the answer to "4 divided by what equals 1?" is 4.
